Drivers and other aspects of the design will also be important, however, so performance might be quite a bit lower. Performance remains largely unknown, but according to TFLOPS calculations we've seen, it could be close to a GeForce RTX 3080. The high-end trim will come with 4096 GPU cores (or ALUs) and feature up to 16GB of GDDR6 memory. We're currently aware of three SKUs split into high-end, mid-range, and entry-level products. That gives us a theoretical Arc GPU price of around $650 for the "performance" model and $825 for the "premium" model, though there's certainly a bit of flexibility and we could see prices that are $50–$100 lower or higher given we're still a few months away from Arc's release. Game Pass costs about $30 for three months, double that for six months, plus there's other merchandise included with the prizes. The 200 first-place prizes include an "Arc Performance" graphics card and three months of Xbox Game Pass. The grand prize goes to 100 winners, with an "Arc Premium" graphics card and a value of around $900, including six months of Xbox Game Pass.
