Awesome little Linux and LAN card.
This is an amazing little card. If you're looking for a card that needs no external power, has moderate performance, and more than 4 GB of VRAM then this is a solid option. I got mine for a LAN computer that needs to be compact, cool, and not draw too much power. It does all that and plays LAN games at 1440p 144 FPS for good measure. The fact that Intel has WAY better driver support than Nvidia on Linux is icing on the cake. Having never owned an Arc card before, I was prepared for shenanigans, but my Intel Arc experience in the last few months has been... Well... Boring. It just works. This card offers very solid performance for the price.

Small but Mighty !( and afoordable !!!!)
Excellent GPU .I can watch 4 k video without any stuttering in my CPU,I'm yet to try some gaming, even when my PC has not resizable bar the video quality is superb! CPU not stressed.Memory is a little high but that's because Windows 11 is a memory hog even after de-bloating it. I have now to get a 4k monitor,but even in the 1080P I have now the difference is outstanding , it's not noisy as some users claim. And it's a really affordable card, it is the first time I have a decent video card. Performance is very good,video not lagging at all like before having this card installed. Thank you Intel for making an affordable high quality GPU !!, you made a heck of a difference right there. Note: I don't have a fancy computer just a Dell Optiplex 7040 4 cores 8 treads,Ms2 ssd and 32 gigs of RAM. This GPU makes a great upgrade ! My only complain: it came without screws,luckily I had a spare one.

Works well with Linux. Low power.
I wanted a low power graphics card for a Dell desktop, to drive a 4K monitor, also Dell. The computer comes with a weak power supply, less than 300W, so the card needed to be low power too. I don't game, but a watch videos so I wanted decent graphics performance. I couldn't find any configuration tools for the card for my Linux system. Out of the box, there was a lot of tearing not only watching videos but also just scrolling web pages. Horrible. Then I found out that the monitor refresh rate must match the graphics card frame rate (which I didn't know how to find out). I tried setting the monitor refresh rate to 120 Hz, and the tearing went away! I'm happy, I got what I was looking for. What else? Totally quiet. Affordable. Very compatible with Linux (it's the product line Linus Torvalds uses).

When you don't need a video card for a gaming PC
I'm building a new computer for my wife, and wanted to use a standalone video card. I already own one of these cards for my computer, which is used primarily for graphics design, so I thought I'd buy a card that I already know. I assume this card will work for gaming, but that is not its application here. But, this card fulfills every graphic need we have and did not break the bank as some high-end video cards do. Also, my experience with the Arc A380 is that it works well in both Windows 10/11 and Ubuntu Linux. Colors are spot on. If you're printing on a high-end printer, you will most likely need to drop the card's brightness and contrast settings so your print will be correct--best to use a test file and print and/or a calibrator. The board's profiles automatically mesh with what's needed to guarantee that a book cover will look the same from the printer as it does on my computer. One final note: The card simultaneously supports my 34-inch Samsung wide-screen monitor (100 Hz refresh rate) and Sony wide-screen TV at the same time

AV1 encoding, bit overpriced, Overall decent a troubleshooting/basic display out GPU.
Good GPU if you just want display out without needing additional power outside of the pcie slot itself. Single fan, fairly quiet but that’s not surprising given the heatsink and low wattage. It really isn’t going to be a good gaming GPU, if you’re on a budget this isn’t it. This GPU is better suited for lightweight gaming (Stardew valley type of stuff) unless you like 720p resolution with low settings. Where this shines is the AV1 encoding, if you need that this GPU will work. Or if you need GPU for troubleshooting graphics issues. Drivers, tried on Linux mint and windows 11 it works, didn’t notice any glitching or abnormal behavior at 1080P (desktop). Why 4 stars? The price…. You can get something far more versatile for just a bit more or less if you don’t mind not having driver support. This in my opinion is a $80-$100 GPU due to limited use case. Just because something’s “low profile” doesn’t mean it’s worth more. Overall it’s decent, but don’t buy it if you’re looking to game at a reasonable resolution.

Sent a used defective GPU
I was shipped a card that the package had been opened and a used sticker was placed on the box. The item did not function in 3 different ARC compatible computers. I have an ARC A770 made by Intel so I know all of the computers are compatible with Resizeable Bar.

Good GPU
The A 380 ELF works well for running 3-4 monitors. I run several amateur radio programs and have them open on different monitors. It's hard to beat for the price and is well made. I am only running 24" 1080P monitors and the resolution is fine. I can recommend this GPU if you are wanting it for multiple monitors for work or just needing multiple programs running on separate monitors. I would recommend looking elsewhere if you are a gamer though.

Perfect low power plex transcode gpu
For light gaming this gpu will actually work really well, 1080p and pretty much all esports titles will run very well on it. I was more interested in this specific model since it only uses pcie slot power, no 6 or 8 pin required. I mated this to a Beelink GTi13 with the dock, running ubuntu 25.04 and it works perfect for plex transcoding. Card is silent, the fan doesnt spin much when left on auto, temps are fine. The card is lower wattage and essentially I just plug it in and forget it, I'm not worrying about tuning fan profiles. Even an 8 pin powered a380 cannot pull 100w, the die just want use that much power. I do wish it had a backplate but I will probably just put kapton tape on the backside incase the cat decides to lick it or something.

Muy buena gráfica por el precio.
Esta grafica la verdad que funciona muy bien para juegos ligeros (fortnite, rocket league, etc). Hay algunos que se puede jugar en ultra pero la mayoría funcionan en gráficos medios, eso sí, por arriba de los 60 fps. Muy pequeña y se puede instalar en cualquier pc, ya que no le hace falta alimentacion externa.

Works great as a media transcoder for Jellyfin running Truenas Scale!
The card works great! It's used in a Jellyfin media server for encoding/decoding/transcoding video, and it works great in Truenas Scale. This card can even do AV1 decoding/encoding, which is rare for this price. The card is quiet when utilized and when its idling, the fans stop spinning automatically. This means the card does have fan-stop at lower utilization/temps. I haven't noticed any fan coil wine either. NOTE: I do not game on this card, so this card is not being fully utilized/stressed, since i use it for my media server (decoding/encoding).

Best card for a server
Great card. I had some issues with shipping but Amazon helped with that. Card does transcoding for my server fairly great and power draw is low I got it over the a310 for just a bit more VRAM for multi 4k streams.

Parfait pour mon usage
Carte acheté pour équiper un serveur sur un Ryzen 9 3900X afin d'avoir une sortie vidéo. Produit reconnu sans nécessité de drivers, pas besoin d'alimentation supplémentaire pour l'usage c'est très bien.
