Level of Linux Support on B580 ?

Jau_Studio — Tue, 17 Dec 2024 14:50:03 GMT

Hello,

B580 looks awesome, but will it have a good Linux support ? Let's say on Manjaro ?

Also, will we have the possibility to overclock the card ?

I'm an indie game developer working most of the time on Manjaro and sometimes Windows 11, so this matters a lot to me.

Thank you !

Hi Jau_Studio,

Thank you for posting in the communities!

I appreciate your enthusiast for our Intel Arc B580 graphics card but seems like your concern falls to our "Developing Games on Intel Graphics" forum.

No worries, I will be coordinating your concern to our Intel Game Developer team to further assist you on your inquiries.

Hii @Jau_Studio and welcome to our Developer Forum and thank you for your question!

The only information I have about Linux supported distros is in our release notes.

One of the distros I know we support is Ubuntu.

B580 is a great graphics card. Many users have already tested it and I can personally say it's amazing (as I am a developer myself) but I have a Windows system.

If you can, give it a go. If something doesn't work we're here to be your contact with our development team and find a way to make things work. We'd be happy to assist you

Hi !

Thanks !

My main machine is using an AMD (sorry, nobody is perfect ^^") CPU. Is there any risk of issues with this GPU ?

Hey @Jau_Studio !

About that, I think Battlemage runs fine on AMD too.

I'd be more concerned about having re-bar enabled in your MOBO. If you do, then it will work just fine for you

Keep us posted if there's anything else you need
