Thoughts on a Intel Arc B570 GPU
Anyone have thoughts on the Intel Arc GPU? I'm not very experienced with them, but there are decent reviews. I'm considering the Intel Arc B570, which fits my budget around $300. It's not a high-end card, just enough for World of Warcraft and web browsing at 1440p with low to high settings, getting over 100 fps. My old 1070 is failing after seven years, so I'm looking for an upgrade. The Arc seems more capable than the 1070, so any feedback would be really helpful.
Around an RTX 3060 performance, slightly quicker than an RX7600 at 1440p. The choice mainly hinges on cost and whether you encounter any issues with Arc's games.
Your setup is still new enough that CPU power usage or missing ReBar shouldn't be a major concern.
B580 would definitely be the preferable choice if it's affordable.
Neweggbusiness currently lists some B580 models for 299, which is above the MSRP of 250. However, none of the newly released cards have been available at their MSRP since their initial launches anyway. Apart from moving to the used market, it seems to be one of the better new offers you can find.

Edit:
They also have B570 models at MSRP, which is a great deal.
