Slower Memory Issue On Arc A770 16GB GPUs Now Fixed By Intel

It was revealed earlier this week that certain customers started to have trouble with the Arc A770 Limited Edition. Their 16GB VRAM-equipped cards are designed to operate at 17.5 Gbps, but in many cases, the clock speed was only 16 Gbps. This is despite the fact that the cards themselves have a capacity of 17.5 Gbps. This resulted in the maximum bandwidth being reduced from 560 GB/s to 512 GB/s as a direct consequence.

It turned out that this was a problem that could be fixed, and the remedy for it is now available along with the updated beta graphics driver.
It has been confirmed by Intel that the problem was a “gap on their side,” and the company has said that freshly installed drivers should prevent similar problems from occurring in the future.
