Intel's Arc Pro B70 workstation GPU is now up to 48% more expensive than it was just a month ago — 32GB Battlemage workstation card climbs toward $2,000
Intel's best Battlemage GPU is now even more expensive due to its large 32GB memory pool that's very useful for AI workloads.
The Intel Arc Pro B70 workstation GPU has seen significant price increases across various regions in the past month. Originally launched with an MSRP of $949, the Battlemage card, equipped with 32GB of GDDR6 ECC VRAM, is now up to 48% more expensive than just a month ago. In the United States, the ASRock Creator variant of the card is listed for $1,299 on Newegg and Amazon, up from $999 just last month, representing a staggering 30% price hike.
B&H even lists the Arc Pro B70 for $1,779, though this is the reference design from Intel. In Germany, the price has risen from around $1,400 to $1,735, a 26% increase. South Korea has experienced the most severe hike, with the price rising from $1,334 to $1,975, a 46% increase. The Arc Pro B70's high demand for AI workloads, particularly inference, has made it a valuable asset, driving these price surges. Intel's official pricing is even higher at $1,988 before discounts.
