Intel's Arc Pro B70 workstation GPU with 32GB of VRAM gets tested in games — Roughly twice as fast as Arc B580 on average, beats RTX 5060 Ti in some titles

In a new review for the Arc Pro B70, the workstation GPU performs rather well across five games tested at 1440p resolution. On average, it loses to the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB in traditional raster but beats it in ray tracing. Overall, the B70 was only 2.9% behind the 5060 Ti in all games when you average out both RT and raster.

Microsoft now recommends 32GB of RAM as the future-proof 'no worries' config for gaming — 16GB becomes the new 'practical starting point' during the RAMageddon

Pretty much no games recommend more than 16GB of RAM, even in the unoptimized era we're living in right now. Only a few titles at their highest presets say 32GB is ideal, so Microsoft claiming that 32GB is the future-proof standard isn't exactly wrong. You'll be fine with 16GB today, but perhaps not tomorrow.
