Sparkle Makes a Comeback with Intel Arc Graphics Cards

A name that has fallen off the current generation of PC brands is Sparkle. A once everpresent name in the mid-2000s, the company has since went obscure, far from their glory days of being a prime partner for NVIDIA in the Geforce GT days. They’ve made GPUs untl the GTX 700 era and has not had much activity in the GPU space since then but it looks like the arrival of Arc card has given them some reason to go back as the company is releasing their own Intel Arc graphics cards featuring Intel’s Arc A750 and Arc A380 GPUs. They will be debuting a new series featuring fantasy inspired naming as well with their own Sparkle A750 TITAN, A750 ORC and the A380 ELF.

Sparkle is coming back with a new look and those used to their old logos will notice they have a new, modernized logo. Their GPUs as well will be clad in a metallic blue color. What’s missing is the lavender fans that Sparkle ran with in its previous GPU releases which really made their cards stand out.

The Sparkle Arc A750 TITAN will be their current top card featuring a triple fan design and will have a factory OC clock speed of 2300Mhz. The smaller Sparkle A750 Orc will feature a more compact dual fan cooler and will have a lower factory OC of 2200mhz.  The A380 Elf is their entry model with a single fan cooler and a compact 2-slot design. The Sparkle Arc A380 Elf will be based off Intel A380 reference so clock speeds are purely stock.

Availability and pricing have not yet been announced. Sparkle will be present at this year’s COMPUTEX 2023 where they could be showing off these cards to attract new distributors.
