Verdict

AMD Instinct MI210

7.3 / 10 Expert Rating

A practical, PCIe-slot-friendly way to get CDNA 2 compute into a standard server, useful for smaller HPC and AI deployments, but clearly the entry point of its generation next to the dual-die MI250X and now well behind the MI300 series.

Intel Arc A770

7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

Intel's most complete Alchemist card, with a rare 16GB-at-this-price option and real XeSS/ray tracing hardware.
