Intel at the 2025 Computex showed off its next-generation Core Ultra Series 3 processor, codenamed "Panther Lake." The mobile H-segment version of the chip comes with a slender rectangular package similar to "Arrow Lake-H" and "Meteor Lake." It is a tile-based disaggregated processor, but comes in a unique arrangement of tiles we haven't seen with the past two generations. The chip is dominated by two large tiles, one is very likely the Graphics + SoC tile, the smaller of the two being the Compute tile with the CPU cores, and the slender rectangular tiles being related to I/O.

As for IP, "Panther Lake" introduces a new generation iGPU powered by the Xe3 "Celestial" graphics architecture. The CPU complex consists of "Cougar Cove" P-cores, and "Darkmont" E-cores, both of which are expected to provide generational IPC improvements over the current "Lion Cove" and "Skymont." At Computex, we not only got to go hands-on with the mobile packages of "Panther Lake," but also see the chip in action, installed on a testing and platform validation system. The engineering goal with "Panther Lake," Intel says, is to offer efficiency similar to "Lunar Lake," but with performance generationally exceeding "Arrow Lake-H." The Compute tile is expected to be built on the new Intel 18A foundry node. Intel says "Panther Lake" is on track for mass-production in the second half of 2025, with the first consumer products expected at CES 2026.

Here are some of the first pictures of the Maxsun Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, which as its name suggests, is a dual-GPU graphics card. This card comes with a pair of Arc Pro B60 chips, each with 24 GB of memory, for a total of 48 GB on the card. The card is a 2-slot, full-height, and over 30 cm-long beast with a lateral-blower based cooling solution. It draws power from a 600 W 12V2x6 power connector. Both GPUs on the card have their own set of display I/O—one each of DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1b, on the rear I/O.

Internally, the Maxsun Arc Pro B60 Dual lacks a PCIe bridge chip. Since the "BMG-G21" silicon has a PCI-Express 5.0 x8 host interface, both GPUs are connected across the x16 gold finger, and rely on PCIe lane segmentation at the host level. This is precisely how M.2 NVMe riser AICs work, where they split the x16 connection among the four x4 M.2 SSDs. The primary use-case of the Arc Pro B60 Dual 48 GB is AI inferencing, and its board is designed to help you stack up to four of these cards in a workstation for 192 GB of video memory for AI models to span across. PCIe Gen 5 offers certain cache coherency features Intel introduced with CXL 1.0. Tying it all together is Intel's Project Battlematrix inference workstation platform.

Intel at the 2025 Computex unveiled its Arc Pro "Battlemage" line of graphics cards powered by its latest Xe2 graphics architecture, and based on its 5 nm BMG-G21 silicon. The Arc Pro B50 is targeted squarely for professional visualization and graphics workstations; and comes with 12 GB of memory. The Arc Pro B60, on the other hand, has 24 GB of memory and has additional use-cases in the area of AI inferencing. Unlike AMD and NVIDIA, Intel is going to market for its Arc Pro B-series with board partner-based custom designs. These partners include ASRock, Gunnir, Maxsun, Sparkle, Onix, Senao, and Lanner.

As a pro-vis solution, the Arc Pro B50 series comes with a comprehensive set of certifications and validation by leading content creation applications. Intel is working on bolstering its AI inferencing product stack, with the debut of the new Project Battlematrix Linux software stack, and workstation platform, which enables up to 8 Arc Pro GPUs with 192 GB of memory between them, for accelerating 70 billion+ parameter models.

Maxsun's parent company has quietly registered new 24 GB versions of Intel's Arc B580 graphics card with the EEC. While regulatory filings often cover placeholder or speculative hardware, this submission lines up with ongoing rumors about a high-memory "Battlemage" model aimed at both gamers and professionals. Back in December and January, Intel launched the Arc B580 and B570 GPUs, bringing the Battlemage architecture to desktops just a few months after "Lunar Lake" appeared on laptops. Those first cards came with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory, a surprisingly generous amount for graphics cards selling under $300, and they helped establish Intel as a real contender in the mainstream GPU market. Since then, chatter about a 24 GB version has never died down. The story gained weight when board partner Sparkle briefly hinted at such a variant and then retracted the comment under NDA obligations. Further fueling speculation, a Sparkle representative in China discussed the planned "B580 24 GB" during a March social-media exchange.

Now, Maxsun's EEC filing lists two models called "iCraft 24G" and "iCraft 24G OC," and those names match what Sparkle first mentioned. There's no guarantee these cards will actually hit store shelves, but the matching details and timing suggest Intel may be testing the waters for a memory-heavy Arc B580. That would make sense given recent leaks about an Arc PRO A60 workstation card also packing 24 GB of memory. Under the hood, the Arc B580's BMG-G21 chip offers up to 20 Xe cores and 2,560 shader units, putting it in the same ballpark as NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4060. With Computex just days away, Intel will finally reveal whether these high-memory Arc B580 cards, or perhaps even bigger Battlemage-based workstation GPUs, are coming our way. Additionally, enthusiasts are keeping an eye on the rumored Arc B770, which is expected next quarter and likely to be detailed at Computex alongside Intel's broader Battlemage and upcoming Xe3 "Celestial" roadmap.

Intel appears ready to broaden its Arc "Battlemage" lineup with a new, more powerful desktop graphics card likely to be called the Arc B770, potentially arriving as soon as next quarter. Until now, Team Blue has introduced only two Xe2 Battlemage models, the B570 (10 GB) and B580 (12 GB), both of which earned praise for solid performance at accessible price points. Enthusiasts have long speculated about successors like the B750, B770, and even a B780, but Intel shifted its public focus to upcoming AI PC processors after the B570 launch, leaving GPU fans uncertain which designs would materialize. Recent shipping manifests uncovered a "BMG‑G31" GPU die en route to Intel's Vietnam assembly plant, the same site that produced limited‑edition B570 and B580 cards, while insider Haze2K1's documents hint at a "B7XX" special‑edition series. Simultaneously, chatter about a 24 GB Developer Edition based on the earlier BMG‑G21 die suggests Intel is also eyeing workstation and creative‑professional markets.

A well-known tipster, OneRaichu, has further fueled excitement by reporting that the Arc B770 could pack between 24 and 32 Xe2 compute units, a 256‑bit memory interface, and 16 GB of GDDR6, positioning it squarely against rival xx60‑series models and promising a meaningful boost in gaming and compute workloads. Beyond Battlemage, Intel's next‑generation graphics architecture, Xe3 "Celestial," has reached pre‑silicon validation. According to Intel engineer Tom Petersen and corroborating industry leaks, Celestial's core media engines, Xe cores, XMX matrix units, and ray‑tracing hardware are fully designed and are now being tested in a hardware model to fine‑tune power consumption and clock speeds. With Computex 2025 kicking off in late May, Intel may at last clarify both its high‑end Battlemage refresh and the broader Celestial roadmap, potentially reshaping competition in the mainstream and next‑generation GPU markets.
