Intel partners have not yet received test samples of the arc b770

The situation surrounding the launch of Intel's new flagship graphics card, the Arc B770, is becoming increasingly mysterious. Although the official announcement is expected very soon (if the insiders are correct), two major Intel motherboard manufacturing partners have privately reported that they have not yet received even engineering samples for testing. This raises serious questions about the feasibility of the announced release date. Typically, manufacturing partners receive test boards several months before the product hits the market. This is necessary so that engineers can develop their own cooling systems, configure the BIOS, and ensure that the components perform stably under load. The fact that key vendors have nothing in their hands just weeks before the supposed launch means either that Intel is planning a very limited release of exclusively Limited Edition reference models, or that the release of the graphics card will be postponed again.
