New rumors suggest a new launch window for a successor GPU to Intel’s Arc A770. This is a sign that has been rumored for over a year, so it is reasonable to be cautious when trusting one more.
The difference is that this leak appeared on GitHub, where the Arc B770 appeared in an undisclosed Intel GitHub repository (to be more specific). The leak mentions a code “b770”. While this isn’t official confirmation, it’s easy to connect the dots and realize that B770 is closer than ever.
The Arc B770 will be part of Intel’s second-generation discrete GPU architecture known as “Battlemage”, using Xe2 cores, which were supposed to be much more ambitious, but plans appear to have slowed down. And, considering that the blue team has just emerged from a crisis, it is reasonable to understand.

Specifications
Previous leaks have revealed some of the specifications you can expect from the B770, including the BMG-G31 chip, which has 32 Xe2 cores. This represents a huge jump from the 20 Xe cores found in the previous generation A770.
The GPU will also have at least 16 GB of GDDR6 VRAM, distributed over a 256-bit bus. While some rumors point to more than 16GB, that’s highly unlikely right now given the DRAM shortage the market faces.
The card will compete with AMD’s RX 9060 series and NVIDIA’s RTX 5060 series cards, with an estimated TGP of up to 300 W. There is no information on clock frequencies, but it is known that it will be manufactured using TSMC’s N5 process, as this is the process used in other GPUs in the Battlemage line.
Intel has also made significant progress on its driver suite since it last revealed a B-series board, the B570 at CES 2025 a year ago.

Portfolio of the moment
The timing of the leak makes sense, as CES 2026 is about to start (tomorrow) and Intel has a conference scheduled for today. The arrival of the Arc B770 will bring much-needed competition to NVIDIA and AMD in the mid-range GPU segment.
Of course, it will still need to be competitively priced, but considering Intel’s track record with Alchemist, it’s not unreasonable to have high expectations.
At Kabum, prices for the RTX 5060 range from R$2,159.99 (ASUS DUAL) to R$4,210.07 (Gaming OC). At the same time, Intel’s already available GPU models cost R$ 1,829.99 (Arc B570), R$ 2,249.90 (Arc A750) and R$ 2,480.22 (Arc B580).
Which shows that, with the right price, Intel can occupy some space.
