Oh great, some wildly overpriced and underperforming GPUs.
Edit: went looking at Intel’s desktop GPUs and found this gem:
And checked out the specs for performance of Intel’s top cards (B580/A770) against a basic 3080 card (no OC/TI, whatever) and the intel cards ranked well below the older 3080, and weren’t even in the ballpark against upper tier 4- and 5- series Nvidia cards. Plus missing features like DLSS, etc.
Good enough for non-FPS dependent gaming? Sure. Can’t beat the price, I was wrong about that. Want to play high-FPS demanding twitch gaming? No.
Atleast it's a 3rd contender, but afaik the Arc series had a decent enough pricing, although AMD's prices seemed better, but not sure
"oh great, competition in a market with no competition. Horrible."
Intel has already been making discrete GPUs for two generations and they are very cheap and aren't the most performant but fantastic for the price.
I'd rather a non-US player enter the market like moorethreads, but because of us capitalist assholes, handicapping China competition for a long time they aren't going to be able to make cards that are up to our performance standards till the 2030s probably
they've been quite good on the pricing front?
They won’t be for you.
