Intel has quietly launched two new additions to their Arc A series of video cards for laptops. The Arc A530M and Arc A570M both bring impressive specs to the table without much fanfare.

Both of these new GPUs feature Intel's Xe cores, with the A530M boasting twelve cores and the A570M stepping it up to sixteen. This translates to 192 and 256 execution units respectively, providing solid performance for gaming and content creation on the go.

Despite the lack of announcement from Intel, drivers for these new cards are now available for download. The specifications for the A530M and A570M have been published on Intel's website, as reported by Videocardz.

What sets the A570M apart from its predecessors is its higher clock speed of 1.3GHz, a significant bump from the previous variant. The TGP (Total Graphics Power) has also seen an increase of 15W, ranging from 75 to 95W on the A570M.

On the other hand, the A530M introduces a new configuration with twelve Xe cores and a matching clock speed of 1.3GHz. Its TGP ranges from 65 to 95W, offering a balance of power efficiency and performance for users.

Both of these new cards come equipped with a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface, ensuring they can handle the latest bandwidth demands from modern games and applications. While Intel has not disclosed the maximum memory capacity these GPUs support, users can expect sufficient memory for most tasks.

Interestingly, both the A530M and A570M feature a new ACM-G12 GPU, as revealed in Mesa's repository and highlighted by Twitter user @Bionic_Squash. This GPU was previously utilized in Intel's Arc Pro A60 for workstations, making its debut in consumer graphics with these new laptops cards.

With the addition of the A530M and A570M, Intel now offers a diverse range of Arc laptop GPUs, totaling seven different models. These cards cater to a wide range of users, from casual gamers to content creators looking for mobile solutions.

In addition to their laptop lineup, Intel also introduced three consumer desktop graphics cards: the Arc A770, A750, and A330. This expansion showcases Intel's commitment to providing a comprehensive range of graphics solutions for both mobile and desktop users.
