Intel's flagship Battlemage workstation GPU, the Arc Pro B70, has seen significant price hikes across global markets this August. Originally launched with a $949 MSRP, the top-end card features 32GB of GDDR6 ECC VRAM for professional computing workloads.
In the U.S., the ASRock Creator variant rose from $999 in July to $1,299 on Newegg, while B&H lists the reference design at $1,779. European prices jumped 26% to 1,500 Euros, and South Korean listings spiked 48% to 2,798,980 KRW from a previous 1,889,980 KRW.
These increases represent a 30% rise in the U.S. market for Intel's premier professional hardware. Because Intel did not launch a gaming-focused flagship for the Battlemage generation, the Arc Pro B70 remains the brand's sole high-end performance option.
