Bless him, Raja is trying so hard to get this out

Mining doesn't start with a 'G'

Yes please, we need moreplayer sout there to push the prices...

AMD and NVidia have had such issues with stock that Intel has decided to get back into the GPU market

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

I wish them the best of luck. I am getting fedup of the Nvidia-AMD duology,and a third player is much needed. Maybe if Intel can try a bit of contra-revenue while they are at it!

I'm a bit out of the loop, do Intel still have their own fabs everywhere?
They could become a player by simply not having to rely on other people to make their stuff and actually having stock..

They do.. and they are a bit pants at the moment compared to TSMC and Samsung, hence why these GPUs are being made at TSMC rather than Intel. One day in the future if they sort them out, maybe, or maybe they'll go fabless as well.

I have a feeling Intel might actually be in line to get US government aid,especially as Biden,etc have been looking into reviewing supply chains,and making sure the US has these set in stone.

If Intel can release these products in any sort of volume and at a non-ridiculous price, then they will have a winner on their hands.
Gamers are crying out for a reasonably priced, middle of the road graphics card.

Naw people are crying out for really badass cards that can run the new content at higest quality, reasonable price and such.

Or we need programmers to actually start programming again, because most of the developers of games is in the pocket of them teams to code by this and that and then in the end it is Nvidia or AMD that set the bar of how much you got to spend on a card to always get minimum at least 80+ fps at 4K.

It is very much a Cartel.

Raja's usual 4096 number.

[Sam 359]

I just can't see any scenario where anyone other than a die-hard intel fanboy would choose these. Except for if they've got a solid stash of components available to hand and can saturate the market faster than the big 2...

Really? What makes you say that?

By far, the biggest selling graphics cards are in the 200 -300 price range. By far the biggest selling monitors are still 1080.
Only a fraction of a percentage of gamers with more money than sense, will spend 1000+ to play at 4k, and even at that the newest most expensive cards are struggling with 60fps at 4k.
I agree it is a cartel though.

Is ray tracing in cinematic rendering the same technique used for game ray tracing? Does GPU ray-tracing hardware for gaming also imply acceleration for rendering?
