Intel’s New Arc GPUs Are A Performance Bargain
The new graphics cards deliver high performance for gaming and creative applications at a very reasonable price.
Have you been frustrated at the crazy prices being asked for GPUs these days? For many content creators and gamers, even mid-range graphics cards have become prohibitively expensive over the last few years.
If you’re planning a GPU upgrade in the near future, we have some excellent news: Intel’s new Arc 7 graphics cards seem to offer the perfect combination of high power and modest cost. The long-awaited Arc A770 and A750 GPUs offer 32 Xe and 28 Xe cores, respectively, with at least 8GB of memory. Intel claims that the Arc A750 will outperform an Nvidia RTX 3060 — and the best part is that the new card will retail for under $350.

If you’re less interested in building a PC from scratch, and would rather purchase a pre-made system, don’t worry — Intel’s Arc GPUs are already creeping into various readymade machines:
- The ABS Stratos Aqua system is a fantastic gaming rig. With the onboard Intel GPU’s Xe SuperSampling technology, Counter Strike missions are guaranteed to look silky smooth, with realistic shadows and reflection detail.
- The Thermaltake LCGS Quartz features an Intel Arc A750 GPU and will help creatives make better content in less time. AV1 hardware encoding support and Intel’s XMX AI capabilities make 3D animation and editing effortless.
- The iBUYPOWER SlateHako2120i desktop would make a fantastic choice for gamers who like to live stream their sessions. Intel’s Deep Link technology features built-in background removal, auto camera framing, and plenty of options that make it simple to stream like a pro.
As you can see, Intel’s new cards should add plenty of variety to the current PC landscape, especially at such competitive prices. Whether you’re looking for a killer new gaming rig, a video editing powerhouse, or a content creation beast, these new GPUs are definitely worth checking out.

The Petshop Launches UAE’s First Pet Care Super App
Dubai retailer folds shopping, bookings and pet records into one mobile hub that features reminders, personalization, and more.
The Petshop has introduced a “Super App” that pulls together shopping, service bookings and pet records into a single platform, pitching it as the first integrated pet care app of its kind in the UAE.
The release turns the company’s stores, services and e-commerce operation into one connected system. Instead of juggling calls, WhatsApp chats and paper notes, customers manage everything from one account.
Each pet gets a dedicated profile. Age, diet, medical notes and behavioral traits sit in one place and update over time. For households with multiple animals, it’s a practical fix: fewer lost details, fewer repeat explanations at the counter.
That data feeds the app’s personalization. Reminders, recommendations and service options adjust to the specific pet rather than defaulting to broad prompts.
Grooming, boarding, relocation, aquatics and wellness services are booked through the same flow. Users can check availability, lock in appointments and see past visits without hopping between tools. All of the key services can be accessed and booked with a few taps.
The company says records and documents are stored with added safeguards, including verified digital paperwork for sensitive information, while usage signals trigger timely prompts without exposing private data.
“Over the past fifteen years, we’ve grown alongside the pet community in the UAE and seen how pet ownership has evolved,” said Amr Hazem Youssef, CEO of The Petshop. “For pet families, care now depends on continuity, accurate information, and services that match real life, not isolated transactions. This app brings those elements into one place with a structure that supports reliable care”.

He added: “Pets have individual needs that change over time, and those needs shape daily decisions around routines, health, and wellbeing. By keeping information organized and connecting services within one system, we can reduce friction for pet families and deliver greater consistency across the experience.”
Founded in 2011, The Petshop now operates 11 outlets across the United Arab Emirates, including megastores in Dubai Investment Park and Abu Dhabi’s Al Reem Island, plus an online catalogue of more than 12,000 products.
The Petshop Super App is available on both the App Store and Google Play.
