An Intel Arc Battlemage GPU with PCIe 5.0 interface has been spotted at PCI-SIG

A new model of Intel Arc Battlemage GPU has been referenced at PCI-SIG under the code name “99CMLN”. It features a PCIe 5.0 ×16 interface, a first for an Arc B series board.
Until now, consumer models such as the Arc B580 and B570 used the BGM-G21 GPU with a PCIe 4.0 ×8 interface, despite rumors of PCIe 5.0 compatibility. Only the Pro versions featured this faster interface.
The model detected could correspond to a higher-end GPU, potentially the BGM-G31, which has been hinted at in some leaks. It could be the Arc B770, briefly mentioned by Intel before Computex but absent from the event. This board is expected for the fourth quarter of 2025.
In parallel, partners are working on Pro B60 and B50 variants, and an Arc B580 model with 24 GB of memory could also be released soon.
