Maxsun is preparing a triple-fan GPU, possibly the Arc B580, set to be unveiled on the day when Intel will announce its Battlemage series.

After ASRock and GUNNIR, now the Chinese PC hardware manufacturer Maxsun is prepared to show off its custom Intel Battlemage GPU on 3rd December. Intel is set to officially reveal the Battlemage Xe2-based discrete graphics cards on 3rd December, which is the day when other Intel board partners will reveal their own editions.

While Intel doesn't have many board partners, it has at least retained the existing ones it has been working with on the Arc Alchemist graphics cards. Maxsun may not be a popular GPU manufacturer, but it does sell its GPUs quite successfully on Amazon. The company produces motherboards, GPUs, memory, and storage solutions but is mostly known for its GPUs, particularly the old Radeon RX 580 card, at affordable prices.

The latest addition will be the Arc B580 GPU, which, in the picture, seems to be a triple-fan design with a black shroud. While we know the early specifications of the B580 GPU, the core clock on this one might be different. It could possibly exceed 2.8 GHz if it's factory-overclocked, otherwise, it should at least bring 2.8 GHz as its max boost clock.

We don't know how many display outputs it will bring or whether it will feature single or dual 8-pin power connectors as the company has yet to reveal these things. As ASRock's B580 Steel Legend brings a similar triple fan design with dual 8-pin connectors, it's possible that the Maxsun edition will also have dual 8-pin connectors. This is mostly done to allow the GPU to consume more power when overclocked, as a single 8-pin connector can supply up to 150W of power along with 75W from the PCI-E x16 slot.

Intel has also prepared another Battemage card, the Arc B570, but hasn't revealed any info on it except that we know ASRock has prepared a Challenger series card. It will be a 10 GB GPU with 18 Xe2 cores and up to 2.6 GHz. It's possible that Intel and other AIBs will launch both editions at the same time or may come up with the B570 later.
