Maxsun’s parent company has submitted new filings to the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) that reveal two unannounced graphics card models featuring 24 GB of memory under the Maxsun Arc B580 lineup. These new entries—labeled “iCraft 24G” and “iCraft 24G OC”—could point to upcoming high-memory variants of Intel’s Battlemage-based desktop GPUs. While EEC filings don’t always lead to commercial releases, the naming and timing align with earlier information shared by other Intel board partners, suggesting that something more concrete may be on the horizon.
Intel first introduced the Arc B580 and B570 graphics cards late last year as part of its Battlemage generation, following the launch of “Lunar Lake” chips in mobile form. The B580 debuted with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory, which was notable for a card expected to be priced below $300. This configuration helped Intel carve out a space in the competitive mid-range GPU market dominated by AMD and NVIDIA.
Rumors of a 24 GB Maxsun Arc B580 variant have circulated since shortly after the initial release. In early 2024, Sparkle, one of Intel’s board partners, briefly mentioned a 24 GB version before retracting the statement, reportedly due to non-disclosure agreements. In March, a Sparkle representative on Chinese social media again referenced a “B580 24 GB” model during a discussion, reigniting speculation about an upcoming high-memory release.
The latest Maxsun filing appears to support these earlier hints. The use of “iCraft” branding, which Maxsun applies to its custom-cooled and overclocked models, suggests that the new cards may target both performance enthusiasts and users with high memory requirements—possibly for content creation, 3D rendering, or AI-related workloads. The listing also closely follows leaks surrounding an Arc Pro A60 workstation card, which is also rumored to carry 24 GB of VRAM.
The Intel Arc B580 is based on Intel’s BMG-G21 GPU, which features up to 20 Xe cores and 2,560 shader units. This configuration is comparable to NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4060, though actual performance depends on many factors, including driver optimization and power delivery. A 24 GB version would not only provide more headroom for high-resolution textures and workloads but also position the card as an affordable alternative in segments that typically demand more VRAM.
With Computex 2025 just around the corner, Intel is expected to share updates on its graphics roadmap, which includes Battlemage desktop cards and the upcoming Xe3-based “Celestial” architecture. The rumored Arc B770, a higher-end Battlemage GPU, is also anticipated to make an appearance during the event. Whether the 24 GB Maxsun Arc B580 becomes a retail product or remains a limited release for specific regions or partners, the signs increasingly point to Intel expanding its reach in both the gaming and professional GPU segments.
