ASRock Intel Arc A380 Challenger ITX 6GB OC Graphics Card | Single Slot ITX | 2250 MHz | 6GB GDDR6 | DisplayPort 2.0 | HDMI 2.0b | 0dB Cooling | 8K Support | 500W | DirectX 12 Ultimate | PCIe 4.0

Purchased for a homelab rack server running Linux and Plex and some other tools. Highly recommend for a lower cost modern high performance card, it isn't power hungry, and is very stable while it handles transcoding for multiple streams. The only downside I found was that HDMI output for large resolutions was highly limited due to the output path being native for display port and the HDMI bridge being lower speed; my display was just above the capability of the HDMI output, so I had to switch to the HDMI output from the CPU chipset.

You typically don't expect much from a budget GPU. And rightly so, they obviously are not the most powerful GPUs. But for what you are paying, Intel seems to have delivered a mighty GPU core, and ASRock has once again integrated it into a cheap board with good build quality.This little two slot, single fan card is going to serve you well if you need something that can play low to mid range games at low to mid range settings. Uses a single power cable, classic 4x2 arrangement instead of the stupid 12VHPWR cable that Nvidia wants you to use (and subsequently burn your house down with).Installs cleanly, no different than any other GPU. Click it into your PCI slot, secure the screws onto the back of the case, and you are done. Card is lightweight, definitely not the type of card where you need to worry about it sagging from its own weight.Bear in mind that Intel drivers are still maturing, so old Direct3D9 games might still be a bit rocky.

Excellent value video when encoding for a PLEX server. I wanted to utilize the highly efficient AV1 codec and board storms through high quality conversions. AV1 plays fine on almost everything these days on PLEX with some device file configuration updates.

I like this GPU for its media handling capabilities. It can encode, decode or transcode AV1 along with other codecs rapidly which was my primary reason for getting the A380. The 3D performance isn't award winning when I tried gaming with it, but lighter lower requirement or low graphic gaming worked really well. It's not a Cyberpunk 2077 GPU unless you like lower FPS gaming, just letting people know. Stability is much better considering Intel has spend a lot of time improving the drivers over the years. I'm happy about that.It does what I need it to do quite well, so it's a great lower powered GPU with a good value attached to it that I would recommend. Power consumption is pretty good, however the one thing I didn't like is the above average idle power consumption. That's the only issue I had with it and is why I reduced 1 star from my review. I even did all of the recommend adjustments that works for some, but it didn't do anything for me unfortunately.

TLDR: great GPU especially if you can get it for less than 140$, I heavily recommend you do NOT buy this gpu IF you don't have a pc that supports REBAR. Tech savvyness WILL be required.Now long review it will be terrible if you don't have rebar. So only newer systems. Like only ryzen and newer Intel cpus. Keep in mind as well if you want extra performance for older games you'll have to do extra work with dxvk. That was the only way I could get my old old games working properly and at the expected performance level. New DX12 games work GREAT no problems so far and I had expected performance and even exceeded in some areas. Especially in the power consumption it was only using like 60 watts max usage but usually way below that. Ray tracing performance is great for this price point even beating the rtx 2060 in doom dark ages. Overall to conclude its great I heavily recommend it if you are building a newer budget system or if upgrading from a 1070 and below. It didn't disappoint. Just keep in mind I'm seeing the best case scenario since I play mostly old games. That I than add Vulkan to so I get good performance in most of the games I personally play. Best 140$ I could have spent.

Purchased this to use for hardware encoding/decoding and object detection using the OpenVino framework in Frigate. Card probably works fine, but there's no signal on the HDMI port prior to the kernel loading when rebar/above 4G decoding are enabled, which makes troubleshooting problematic with a KVM over IP that uses HDMI. Very disappointed.

i cant really reccomend this anymore. lots called this a basic display adapter, and i thought "nah itll be fine, its pretty impressive on paper, and my expectations arent even that high". its ok, but it will leave you wanting very quickly. it works just fine as a basic display adapter, for a streaming box, and for older games. but if you want to play anything made after 2019 its gonna struggle. a lot. the most recent game it can run that ive tried is Halo infinite but only at 1080p lowest settings, at like 50-35 and even then it crashes a lot and suffers from visual bugs. it just doesnt have enough VRAM. if you are CERTAIN you will only be playing old games, lighter indie titles and ESPORTS games like fortnite or overwatch, it will be fine. but if you have even a slight inkling that you will be playing anything new, just go get something with a little more power. an rtx 5050, b580 or an rx 7600 is a much better value proposition for that purpose, but i suppose for basic low end gaming, streaming, and stuff you can squeak by with this thing. Intel GPUs also have issues with compatibility, which i have run into a handful of times. so just consider it very carefully. but i would have to say just save up another 160 and get a better card.

Bought it on the pretense that it did not require external power, but it absolutely needs an 8-pin power connection. I can't fault ASRock for that but I could have avoided the mistake had the listing included a nice clear image of the top of the card. I misplaced the cable set for my old PSU so I could not install it in my NAS plex server as intended. It has recently come in handy though to troubleshoot another PC so FIVE STARS!!!

Bis jetzt Woche 3 eine Top Grafikkarte und funktioniert wunderbar

Used for transcoding in unraid. Really quiet and capable little card.

I like this video card a lot. I'm not a gamer, so I cannot judge how this card performs while playing games. I'm a graphic designer and I create images using Adobe software. This ARC A380 card does its job very well. Combining this with a motherboard that supports resizable BAR and installing the latest drivers, results in a very smooth experience, despite its rather modest specifications. I have another computer with a nvidia RTX with more or less same specifications, which operates at the same speed, but costs twice as much. For content creating, the ARC A380 does the job at an unbeatable price. And it's very quiet.

I really like this graphics card. I am mostly using it on my HTPC to view Blu-ray movies ripped to my hard drive, which includes 4K movies too.The performance of the card is very good. I am not a serious gamer, but occasionally, I do play a few games.This graphics card does just fine on most games.I used to have an Asus AMD Radeon™ RX 6600, but this card outperforms the Asus card.Intel is releasing drivers more frequently now.This graphics card is definitely a good buy for everyone but the die hard gamer.

旧世代の資産を活用してIntel QSVでエンコードしたい！という人向けの、ハードウェアエンコーダーとしての評価です。良い点：・FHD(MPEG2)の動画4本をFHD(HEVC)に同時にエンコードさせても実用的な速度が出る（エンコードに使うソフトの設定にもよる。当方では4スレッド同時エンコードで平均して1スレッドあたり60FPS程度）。※GeForceだとGeForce GTX1630以上で2スレッドまで（ということになっている）、上位機種のRTXだと無制限（らしい）。Radeonは画質がもうちょっと良くならないと比較対象として適当かどうか疑問の余地がある。・Resizable BARに非対応な世代のCPU/プラットフォームでも動くことは動く（※SandyBridge Xeon E5-2690で動作確認）。※一応Intel公式サイトでもResizable BARの対応は必須要件ではないことになっている。悪い点：ビデオカードとして見るなら性能に比して価格が高止まりしていると言える。
