Gunnir remains Intel’s largest partner in the sale of video cards since the release of the Arc Alchemist series of accelerators. Now the time has come for a new series of Battlemage GPUs, and the manufacturer has already presented the fourth version of the Arc B580 video card – it is called the Arc B580 TRI OC.

The card received a completely new cooling system design, which differs from the previously released Index and Photon models. Gunnir video cards in these versions are offered in white and black colors. The new TRI model is available exclusively in black.
Judging by the published images, the TRI model occupies an intermediate position in the manufacturer’s lineup: it is located below the Photon model, but above the Index model. The video card is equipped with a cooling system with three fans and has a thickness of two expansion slots. However, unlike the Photon model, it is not equipped with RGB lighting. In addition, the GPU operating frequencies of the TRI model are slightly lower than those of the Photon version.
For the Arc B580 TRI OC GPU, Gunnir claims a frequency of 2800 MHz. This is 130 MHz higher than the reference version of the card from Intel, but 50 MHz lower than the Photon model, making the latter the fastest version of the B580 on the market at the moment. At the same time, the power consumption of the TRI model remained unchanged and is 213 W, like the Photon. The card’s memory capacity is 12 GB.
Gunnir Intel Arc B580 TRI OC is available for purchase in China. Its cost is 2149 yuan (about $295), which is 100 yuan ($14) more expensive than the Index version, the most affordable custom model in the manufacturer’s range.
