Ordered a Intel Arc Pro B50 16GB 128-bit GDDR6 PCI Express 5.0 x8 AI and RT Workstation SF card today.

There were a number of things that made this card desirable. First, it's Intel which means the drivers ship with the kernel distribution so you never have to fight drivers not matching the kernel as is the case with nVidia.

Second, it support vGPU passthrough. Of the non-nVidia options that do it's either Intel or AMD and AMD's GPUs with this capability are unobtainium and usually same for ARC, but these became available via NewEgg at a reasonable price.

I've been using UHD630 graphics which technically does not support this but if you disable HUC/LUC it works, however the limit of 1GB aperture meant two screens max, I want three so I can have Linux, Windows, and a Hackintosh all operating simultaneously. For me this is an ideal development environment as I can have windows from any of the OS's up simultaneously with near native performance.

It has enough memory to play with AI LLM inference, probably going to use LLAMA.

It has 4 Display ports so compatible with my existing monitor so essentially plug-n-play.
