We really need them to succeed here along with amd. nvidia price gouging is unchecked.
Unfortunately, on every launch, AMD looks at Nvidia’s price gouging and says, “Yeah that pricing looks good for us, too.”
But they then change pricing like 4 times over the next 3 months to bring it to a semi reasonable level at least.
Nvidia just says, yeah the high end shit is $3k. Suck it. Up to the day a new one launches, or even longer sometimes.
They don’t have high end stuff, it’s all just house fire starting equipment these days.
Intel too are heavily invested in that market. Coming from a 13900kf owner.
Again?
Intel pushing into the gpu space is so obviously them trying to get the public to R&D AI hardware since Nvidia is so far ahead of everyone in that game.
It would be great if they accidentally did some good, but it’s not something they are going to keep getting better at.
A Linux optimized GPU would be an interesting product, even if its still just R&D for an entirely different goal
R&D AI hardware
The consumer space has always been to pay for the commercial R&D
You arent wrong.
And for what its worth, i also like boobies
Sweet. Can you run power through it without starting a fire?
That’s Nvidia’s thing.
Intel: Hold my beer
I’m excited for more competition, and someone not making $4000 cards; at the same time, being slower than a 3070 ti…
Intel, eh? Hahahahaa
After screwing over all the CPU owners, I can safely say I’ll pass…
They don’t seem to be taking the CPU fixing seriously
Serious question: Was there ever an intel GPU which could be used to play 3d graphics intensive games? The only chips I came across so far were woefully underperforming laptop chips with fancy names.
arc A750/770 was ~AMD RX 6600/XT or Nvidia 3050/3060 performance, just with (significantly) worse drivers where whether a game would run properly was a flip of a coin
The Arc 7 series GPUs were aimed at gaming. They didn’t generally perform on par with the competition, and there were driver issues at launch. IIRC they just couldn’t run anything DirectX 9 or older, but performed ok on newer games.
I don’t know what the status on them is like now.
Their driver support supposedly has gotten a lot better, but I can’t confirm myself. I did get their cheap a380 for an encoder card for my Jellyfin server because it’s pretty much the cheapest offering with an AV1 hardware encoder. It’s working great for that so far.
Didn’t see any price rumors.
