Intel’s Arc Pro B65 workstation graphics card is now available in the United States. The ASRock Arc Pro B65 Creator has been listed on Newegg for $909.99, placing it just $90 below the faster Arc Pro B70. That small price gap makes the new retail listing particularly interesting for professionals comparing Intel’s latest workstation GPUs.
Intel announced the Arc Pro B65 and Arc Pro B70 earlier this year as part of its Battlemage workstation lineup. Retail availability took longer than expected, making this one of the first opportunities for customers in the US to purchase the card through a retail store.
The Arc Pro B65 is built on Intel’s Xe2-HPG architecture with 20 Xe cores, 160 XMX AI engines, and 32GB of GDDR6 memory. The card is intended for professional applications such as AI development, CAD, engineering, 3D rendering, video production, scientific computing, and visualization instead of gaming.
The 32GB memory capacity is likely to appeal to professionals working with large datasets. AI models, complex engineering projects, high-resolution textures, and detailed 3D scenes can quickly consume graphics memory. Having more VRAM allows larger projects to stay on the GPU, reducing the need to transfer data to system memory during demanding workloads.
Current pricing creates an interesting comparison with the Arc Pro B70. Both graphics cards feature 32GB of GDDR6 memory, but the B70 increases the GPU to 32 Xe cores and 256 XMX AI engines. Spending around $90 more gives buyers significantly higher compute performance while keeping the same memory capacity.
Intel’s Arc Pro B60 sits below the B65 in the lineup. It features the same 20 Xe cores but comes with 24GB of GDDR6 memory and currently sells for around $659.99. That leaves the B65 priced about $250 higher for an additional 8GB of VRAM, giving buyers three different options depending on whether memory capacity or GPU performance is the higher priority.
The ASRock Arc Pro B65 Creator features a blower-style cooler that exhausts hot air directly out of the chassis. This design is commonly used in professional workstations because it works well when multiple graphics cards are installed together. The card also features a vapor chamber, die-cast metal shroud, metal backplate, and Honeywell PTM7950 thermal interface material to maintain stable temperatures during long rendering and compute sessions.
The graphics card supports up to four DisplayPort outputs with resolutions up to 7680 × 4320. It connects through a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface, occupies two expansion slots, and requires a single 12V-2×6 power connector. Support for DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 allows compatibility with modern professional graphics software and GPU-accelerated applications.
Unlike Intel’s consumer Arc graphics cards, the Arc Pro family is built for professional software that depends on certified drivers and long-term stability. That makes the lineup suitable for engineering firms, design studios, research organizations, architects, and businesses running demanding workstation applications every day.
The first US retail listing gives buyers a clearer view of Intel’s workstation graphics lineup. Professionals who need 32GB of VRAM may find the Arc Pro B65 a practical choice, while those looking for the highest compute performance for their budget may prefer stepping up to the Arc Pro B70 given the small difference in price.
