We finally have Intel's Arc A380 card in hand, after a lengthy shipping process from China. Is it too little, too late? Perhaps, but we've put it through its paces, using the latest beta drivers. It's still very much a work in progress, though at the target $139 price point it's not all bad. It's not all good either, and there are definitely better GPUs to be found for your hard-earned money... unless you really want hardware accelerated AV1 encoding, right now.
