Sparkle, a major AIB partner for Intel, is set to introduce a range of innovative designs for their Intel Arc GPU family. These designs include new BTF, AIO, Hybrid, and Hydro models, as well as new white PCB versions. Sparkle showcased various Intel Arc GPUs with advanced cooling solutions at Computex 2024, building on their previous Luna line and liquid-cooled designs.
One standout design by Sparkle is the Intel Arc A770 BTF edition, featuring a specialized high-power interface on the PCB that connects directly to the motherboard connector, eliminating the need for cable connectors and enabling cleaner cable management. The company is also exploring the BTF concept, similar to ASUS, that accommodates the GPU and motherboard ecosystem within their line of ROG, TUF, and PRIME series.
In addition to the BTF model, Sparkle displayed Intel Arc A770 GPUs in different liquid-cooled versions, such as an AIO design with a 240mm radiator and a single-slot design, as well as a hybrid model combining air and liquid cooling with a 2.5-slot design and dual 8-pin connectors. They also presented a Hydro water block solution utilizing Bitspower’s design. These high-end designs show the enthusiast-level innovations Sparkle is implementing for Intel cards.
Moreover, Sparkle is working on a new white PCB for their high-end Intel Arc A770 GPUs, catering to users seeking an all-white PC aesthetic. They also teased a blower concept based on the Arc A770 GPU with a long dual-slot design. While pricing and availability details are yet to be disclosed, these concept models are expected to pave the way for the next-generation Arc Battlemage graphics cards slated for release later this year.
Overall, Sparkle’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of design and cooling solutions for Intel Arc GPUs underscores their dedication to delivering innovative and premium products for consumers. Their showcase at Computex 2024 highlights the company’s efforts in expanding and enhancing the Intel Arc GPU family with a range of cutting-edge designs and features.
