Intel Arc Pro B70 BMG-G31 Linux Gaming Performance
With OpenGL workloads like the demanding Unigine benchmarks, the Intel Arc graphics -- including the Arc Pro B70 -- are more competitive than in many of the Vulkan-rendered Steam Play games.
For those that have been curious about the Arc Pro B70 for Linux gaming, it works and is faster than the Arc B580 but with a price of around $1000 USD isn't really appropriate for Linux gaming especially when options like the sub-$500 Radeon RX 9060 XT end up being faster. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti also does much better especially for ray-tracing games and it can be found for less than $400 USD.
