Intel introduced the Arc A760A discrete graphics accelerator based on the Alchemist architecture, designed for the automotive industry – the presentation took place at the AI Cockpit Innovation Experience event in China. The new product will complement the car’s on-board computer and will process AI-related tasks.

Intel expects its SDV (Software Defined Vehicles) hardware platform to become common across many vehicles, across various trim levels of mid- and premium-class models. The video card is designed primarily for processing data from artificial intelligence systems. “Intel’s strategy is to bring the power of AI to devices of every size and shape, and we are excited to deploy these capabilities and our broad open AI ecosystem to the automotive industry. China’s rapid pace of electric vehicle development and adoption of cutting-edge technologies make it an ideal test bed for our next-generation technologies,” said Jack Weast, vice president and general manager of Intel Automotive.
The Intel Arc Graphics for Automotive A760A discrete graphics card features a GPU with 28 Xe cores, 28 ray tracing acceleration units and 448 XMX/Vector Engine units, and is clocked at 1953 MHz – compared to the Arc A750’s 2.05 GHz. The GPU is complemented by 16 GB of video memory with a 256-bit bus. The PCIe 4.0 x16 interface is used to connect the card. The GPU delivers up to 14 teraflops of single precision (FP32) performance.
On AI output, the graphics card delivers 229 TOPS performance, allowing you to run AAA games and AI-enabled PC apps simultaneously. In the case of the auto industry, this means AI assistants using large language models, rendering a three-dimensional user interface, connecting up to six cameras and four displays. The graphics card consumes up to 225 W, supporting encoding and decoding of popular video formats including HEVC, VP9 and AV1. The Intel A760A will be released in early 2025; no automaker has yet announced their intention to use it.
