Intel Battlemage Showing Off Nice OpenCL Gains With Newest Open-Source Compute Stack

Written by Michael Larabel in Display Drivers on 13 January 2025 at 02:52 PM EST. Page 3 of 3. 33 Comments.

Overall the Arc Grapics B580 continues to serve as a very nice budget graphics card with nice open-source GPU compute support under Linux.

The updated Compute Runtime did address a big regression in the original launch-day support where the OpenCL kernel latency was extremely high. The B580 goes from worst to lowest latency.

Some of the regressions observed with Hashcat for very poor B580 performance relative to the Alchemist GPUs is also in the process of being resolved with the new Intel GPU compute code.

Overall the Intel Battlemage GPU compute support with the open-source Intel Compute Runtime is maturing well. It's great seeing a number of issues resolved leading to much better performance just one month after launch.
