New Intel Arc GPU Alleged to Have 32GB Memory - Big Battlemage and BMGG31 Details Leak

Intel's AI Playground tool may have inadvertently revealed details about a new Arc GPU with 32GB of memory. The discovery appeared in the user guide for the 3.0.0 update of Intel's AI Playground, an early release for Arc graphics cards. Specifically, the guide references an unannounced Intel Arc GPU equipped with 32GB of video memory.

According to Twitter user Haze2K1, this unnamed Arc GPU is potentially called "Big Battlemage" and utilizes the BMGG31 GPU. The AI Playground tool also suggests it features 32GB of VRAM. The user guide reveals several key details about the potential new Arc GPU: 1. It features 32GB of VRAM. 2. It was used to generate an AI image of a panther wearing a necklace with the 12Xe logo. 3. It has a 256-bit bus interface, suggesting potential 16GB and 32GB models. 4. Intel is planning at least four versions of Arc GPUs based on the BMGG31 chipset. 5. Intel's graphics software includes a "shared GPU memory override" feature for allocating system memory to the GPU.
