Today, Lisa Pearce, vice president and general manager of Intel's Visual Computing Division, acknowledged the delays in Arc hardware and software and revealed that Desktop Arc Exclusive will debut in the Chinese market.
In a Q&A on the official website, Lisa Pearce first acknowledged the delay of the mobile Arc graphics card, saying that it is already installed in South Korea's Samsung notebook and is currently advancing into the global market. And there have been some software issues that have led to delays, which will be brought to market on a large scale starting this month. Laptops with Arc 5 and Arc 7 graphics cards will be available in early summer.
In terms of desktop graphics, Lisa Pearce said it will first release the entry-level Intel Arc A series for desktops (A3) in China in the second quarter through system manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers. China's retail version will follow, followed by the global launch of these products.
Intel Arc A5 and A7 desktop graphics will be available to OEMs and system integrators worldwide later this summer, followed by retail.

We've introduced mobile SKUs, and we'll be rolling out desktop SKUs in the second quarter. This year, we will also have more SKUs, we will fill the product line, there is a lot of work. If you're a gamer, you know there's a lot of individual optimization work on some of the key games, so that work is going on, working with our OEMs to fill their portfolio, so I say you're going to see more and more products coming to market. We have 3 versions – 5, 7 and 9 – and we're going to build this combination this year. ”
