Intel Arc A370M notebook graphics card magically modified to the desktop: 60W power consumption requires an 8-pin power supply interface

NVIDIA notebook graphics cards are often magically changed into desktop graphics cards. Unexpectedly, Intel also has this treatment, and it is still an official behavior.Advantech has released a new EAI-3100, which uses the ArcA370M mobile version core.It's very small,Length only 168 mm, but still dual-slot thickness. Large area aluminum fins, plus a small fan.

The specifications have not changed, with 8 Xe cores, frequency 1550MHz, 64-bit 4GBGDDR6 video memory, and the system bus only supports PCIe4.0x8.

Interface providedTwo HDMI2.0b, two DisplayPort1.4a, can connect four monitors, with the highest single output resolution being 4K60 and 8K60.

The original power consumption range was 35-50W, but nowIncreased slightly to 60W.

It is said that a PCIex16 slot is enough to power it.Unexpectedly, an 8-pin power supply interface is installed, which is quite redundant.
