Some Battlemage Specs

Seems like a solid card for the money if you can find one in stock. I have the auto notify from New Egg for the Intel B580 and it was OOS 2 mins after I got the notification email..

I caved and picked up the Asrock Steel Legend. Honestly its pretty sweet so far. Installed it and the drivers and immediately put in about 2 straight hours of Helldivers2 at 1440p. No crashes or issues during the session.

All Intel box complete!

Gotta give it to Intel for focusing on that mid-range market. Massive share potential.

I did too, same card. Guess I thought it would be fun to mess with and I just added a rig, leaving me short a card. I'm really quite surprised Microcenter let me order one for pickup on launch day. They still won't let you order a Core Ultra 7 265k for pickup even though they've been in stock every time I looked since launch. I just ordered it and drove over and picked it up after work.

I haven't gotten around to installing the B580 yet. I'm in the middle of setting up a new Z890/285k rig I just built last week and I'm trying to decide how much card shuffling I feel like doing. I have a 3090 I'll be moving over until I get my hands on Blackwell, so I'm thinking I might just do that and try out the B580 on my X299/10980XE machine. I'm guessing the results of however that goes will be of more interest to a lot of potential B580 buyers since X299 is PCI-e 3.0.
