Well, that was short-lived. It looks like Intel has already discontinued its own first-party version of its flagship Intel Arc A770 graphics card; but don’t worry, this is far from the end of Arc.
The ‘Limited Edition’ model produced directly by Intel will no longer be manufactured by the tech giant, but the GPU itself will remain available from third-party GPU partners like Acer and ASRock. Ironically, the ‘Limited Edition’ moniker apparently didn’t actually mean limited; it was just Intel’s version of Nvidia’s first-party ‘Founders Edition’ cards, and the discontinuation is unrelated.
There was very little warning here; Intel released a Product Change Notification document essentially saying that the original version of the card would no longer be produced, and that was it. The card is already out of stock at Newegg.
It’s something of a surprising move, given that the A770 Limited Edition (LE) has been available for less than a year.
