Architecture and performance
The card uses the Intel Battlemage (Xe2-HPG) architecture with support for Intel Xe Matrix Extensions, which enables hardware-accelerated AI computations. Intel Xe Super Sampling 2 offers AI-enhanced visuals in dozens of games, while XeSS Frame Generation and Xe Low Latency technologies improve smoothness and responsiveness during gameplay. Support for DirectX 12 Ultimate includes advanced graphics features, including ray tracing, which brings realistic lighting and reflections to supported games.
Cooling and construction
The cooling system consists of two fans with a special Striped Axial Fan design, whose blade structure and polished surface increase airflow. The fans operate in 0dB Silent Cooling mode, stopping at lower temperatures for absolute silence and only spinning up under heavier loads. The metal backplate not only gives the card a premium look but also helps dissipate heat thanks to a thermal pad on the back. Ultra-fit heatpipe technology maximises contact between the heat pipes and the GPU base for optimal heat transfer.
Components and reliability
ASRock has equipped the card with Super Alloy components, which include Japanese SP-Cap capacitors with low equivalent series resistance for a longer lifespan and better thermal resistance. Dr.MOS technology with Smart Power Stage monitors the current and temperature of individual power phases, ensuring cleaner and more stable power delivery to the GPU. The 2oz copper PCB reduces temperatures and increases energy efficiency, while the High Density Glass Fabric PCB construction protects against short circuits caused by moisture.
Connectivity and compatibility
The card offers three DisplayPort 2.1 outputs and one HDMI 2.1 output, allowing you to connect modern high-resolution and high-refresh-rate monitors. A single 8-pin connector is sufficient for power. An LED indicator, which can be turned off with a switch, gives the card an attractive look without always needing to be lit. The card uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface and is compatible with standard PC builds.
Software and other features
Intel regularly releases driver updates with support for modern games and continuous performance improvements. A dual media engine with dual-encode support speeds up video exporting and content creation, and the card handles all modern codecs, including AV1. The AI Playground application enables local running of AI models for generating images from text directly on your computer.
Determining the utilization of the graphic card. Graphic card for multimedia or office has different parameters than a professional model, or a card for gaming.
The memory stores information necessary for graphic calculations. A higher number in the end indicates newer technology. Today's standard is the GDDR6/GDDR7.
Šířka sběrnice udvádí, kolik dat se dostane z grafické paměti do grafického čipu (GPU) za jeden takt. Obvykle bývá 64, 128 nebo 192bitová, u výkonnějších modelů pak 256/384bitová. Širší sběrnice urychluje výrazně přístup GPU k datům, stejně jako vyšší frekvence grafické paměti.

The number of video outputs refers to the number of physical video connectors (HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, VGA, USB-C Alt-Mode...) present on the graphics card.
Indicates how many separate monitors can be connected to the card at the same time. The limit is determined by the chip's internal display units and the data throughput of the outputs.
OpenGL is a proven cross-platform graphics API that serves as a universal language between applications and GPUs. Although games today choose Vulkan or DirectX, it remains a key standard in professional CAD and 3D applications.
For removal of unwanted heat is used either the passive cooling (silent) or active cooling (fan). there is also the possibility of alternative cooling (water cooler).
Graphics cards with lower wattage power supply just need PCI-Espress slot, more powerful models with higher consumption require an additional power source.
To maximize the performance of your computer must have a sufficiently powerful source. The value is stated in watts, and indicates the minimum appropriate power source.

ako je to prosim s ovladacmi? mal so 770 a po par dnoch som ju vratil, ovladace a chladenie karty bola katastrofa, karta mala horsi vykon aj po nastaveniach v biose ako starsie karty. ventilator sa spraval ako vrtulnik, spinalo, vypinalo, ziadne nizke otacky..vyplo na hranici teploty a o par sekund po stupnuti teploty zas zoplo ventilatory, kaastrofa. ake su skusenosti teraz?
