Intel Arc Pro B60 & B50 Hands-On: New Partners, New Designs In Passive, Blower & Up To Triple-Fan Solutions 1

At Computex 2025, we had a hands-on session with several Intel Arc Pro B60 and B50 GPUs, featuring unique designs from various AIB partners.

Intel Has Arc Pro B60 & B50 GPUs In Several Designs To Choose From: Low-Profile To Passive & Up To Triple-Fans

Intel showcased 11 new designs for the Arc Pro B60 and the Arc Pro B50. One of the designs showcased was the reference B50, and there's also one missing passive-cooled variant from ASRock. But it looks like Intel is ready with a diverse ecosystem of Arc Pro cards that will be coming to the market later this year.

For the Arc Pro B-Series, Intel is working with seven partners, which include ASRock, GUNNIR, Maxsun, Sparkle, ONIX, Senao, and Lanner. Some of these names would be unfamiliar, as they are primarily based in APAC (Asia Pacific), but as we have seen with GUNNIR & ONIX, the lineup is reaching global audiences.

Most of the designs that we saw used blower-style fans, and there were a few unique ones too: one from Senao, which features a triple-fan cooling solution, the ASRock passive-cooled variant, which comes with a single-slot design, and Lanner with its dual-slot and dual-fan solution, which uses a shroud similar to the Arc gaming GPUs.

The reference Intel Arc Pro B50 graphics card comes with a small footprint, making use of a dual-slot design with a compact PCB and also houses four mini display ports. Since the card features a 70-Watt TBP, it doesn't require any external power input.

Now, most of the Intel Arc Pro B60 graphics cards feature either a single or dual 8-pin connector interface, but the Maxsun Arc Pro B60 is the exception. This variant is equipped with a single 12V-2x6 connector, and the reason for that is that it makes use of two BMG-G31 GPUs and is part of "Project Battlematrix," which combines two GPUs and doubles the VRAM in a single package.

In addition to the graphics cards, Intel also displayed systems featuring its brand-new Arc Pro B-Series GPUs. First up, we saw an ASRock system making use of four Arc Pro B60 passive GPUs alongside the Xeon W5-3535X CPU and 256 GB of memory.

There's another system, powered by Beiliande/Gunnir, which uses four Gunnir Arc Pro B60 TF GPUs and makes use of the Xeon W9-3575X CPU with 512 GB of memory. Another one was the ONIX B60 Turbo GPU-powered system by JWIPC.

The most powerful system on display was also from JWIPC and featured 2x Maxsun Arc Pro B60 Dual Turbo GPUs, which are dual-chip solutions for a total of 4 GPUs and 96 GB VRAM.

And finally, we got hands-on with the Battlemage BMG-G21 GPU itself. This isn't particularly new, but it's great to hold the silicon that's powering the Arc B580, Arc B570, and soon the Arc Pro GPUs. We can't wait for Intel to bring us more Arc action soon!
