Arc Pro B50

The Arc Pro B50 is Intel's entry-level Battlemage (Xe2-HPG) professional GPU and the most compact member of the Arc Pro B-series. Released in Q3 2025 as a small-form-factor workstation card, it brings the Xe2 architecture's XMX AI acceleration and hardware ray tracing to a 70W, low-profile envelope designed for space-constrained professional deployments.

The card carries 16GB of GDDR6 memory with ECC support on a 128-bit memory interface delivering 224 GB/s of bandwidth. It features 2048 shader units across 16 Xe2 cores at a 2600 MHz boost clock, with 16 ray tracing units and 128 XMX AI engines. At 70W TDP over a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface, it is built for SFF workstations and compact chassis where standard dual-slot cards cannot fit. It runs Intel's Arc Pro certified professional driver stack independently from the consumer Arc branch.

The Arc Pro B50 targets entry-level professional visualization, AI inference, CAD drafting, and media production in settings where physical space and power budget are the primary constraints. Its 16GB framebuffer provides a significant headroom advantage over lower-capacity LP cards in its price range, and its Xe2 architecture delivers a generational improvement in AI throughput over the first-generation Arc Pro A-series.
