B570 dont seem to offer the same value deal as B580 as the price drop is too little vs perf drop. At the $220 MSRP its a no go

Unfortunately such market corrections are usually late or never comes to Msian market (or even outside USA). As HUB has reviewed, even in Aus the B580 pricing is same as RTX4060 which makes it a now poor value card when factor in certain game crashes & driver overhead issue. In Msia its always been pricing relative to performance so I wont be surprised if B580 will be higher priced than 4060 and B570 will be priced similar to 4060 which then makes both GPU a hard sell here. Look at local Radeon prices for example.

LOL knew that resellers will scalp kawkaw! Shopee Just IT is selling Asus branded 4060 at RM 1291. For B580 to be at those prices will insta DOA.

To be considered, B580 cannot price higher than RM 1200 otherwise its value goes down the drain. But I can bet you, mostly will retail at RM 1300

Its real scalpy when B580 global MSRP is below 4060 but come here becomes higher than that card. Right now 4060 is the incumbent, you dont beat the incumbent by giving poorer value than it. That is why Radeons are such failure to sell here.

Its down to the bottomline.

If intel cannot make money from Arc its bad for Intel.
If intel cannot push enuff stocks to retail causing scalper price its bad for Intel.
If intel cannot make enuff to fill retail shelfs & have presence its bad for Intel.

AMD was smarter to hold & buffer 9070/XT stocks until launch in March so they will have plenty to flood the retail.

If you still cannot get B580 at MSRP by end Feb might as well wait for Nvidia & AMD to launch their budget GPUS.

Same price as 4060 and slightly more than 7600. This GPU is DOA. Needs to be at most RM 1400 with MSRP base model at 1300.

Funny why when Intel & AMD graphics comes here they dont like want to even try and compete by giving better offers. nvidia despite its overprices is quite close margin to its global street prices. Arc & Radeons globally has bigger gap but comes here RM 100-200 less which is meaningless when nvidia mindshare can easily close that gap even at budget level. Its like they gave up b4 even launching here.

EDIT: The distros here also share a big portion of blame. B580 suppose to be cheaper than 7600 but due to its slightly higher perf, distros & resellers here priced them between 7600 & 7600xt which is automatic DOA. Why Intel? WHY?!
