Moment of facts from 5th onwards, exciting times! Looking fowards to seeing the fallout on these forums from whatever level of good/bad they end up being!! :)

I'm certainly interested in the reviews, Intel seem to be deliberately ignoring AMD, pretending they don't exists.

Nvidia is the baseline though, so it makes perfect sense

Its not who they will be competing with and they know it, they want you to compared thier value against Nvidia but ignore AMD, only in that way can they look in any sense sane, they would like you to forget AMD exist.
 
Do you guys think Intel will bring costs down?

They are already over charging against the competition and they haven't even got started yet.

Don't give them the all clear on it.

Acer Announces Entry Into Discrete GPU Market with Intel Arc A770

PC hardware specialist Acer today on Twitter announced its official entry into the discrete GPU market with its own-brand Intel Arc GPUs. The company will be pulling its gaming-oriented Predator branding for the launch of its very own Intel Arc A770, the Predator BiFrost. Despite going in with...

Nvidia is like 80% of the market? seems Arc will be competing with the 3060 and 3070 so seems sensible to me.

If you say it has the same performance as a 6700 or whatever most people likely have to then google and check where that compares to nvidia anyway

If it's lower in price than a 3060 or whatever and faster than a 3060 then is it really? I'm not convinced.

I'm tempted to buy one if AMD offering makes as much sense as Nvidia 4000 series does

If they could manufacture these cards using their own process nodes they would be a big advantage for Intel but that means Intel closing the technology between them and TSMC which at the moment doesn't seem likely (then again Nvidia did alright with Samsung 8nm process so who knows).

It'll take time. Green and Red will certainly be factoring Intel into their future planning already.

After Intel have a taste for successfully overcharging? Or before? The choice is yours.

Intel are at 0%, if you think Intel will take Nvidia's marketshare you're deluded, they want you to think Intel are the only alternative to Nvidia, they know they can't possibly get you to buy an Intel card in place of an Nvidia one.

Well AMD Need to price their cards to disrupt the market and not just piggyback on Nvidia's daft pricing.

They have many times in the past, quite a few of them are right now, it has no effect on Nvidia, because the truth is that's not what we want, what we want is Nvidia but cheaper, given that AMD has failed to do that we now pin our hopes on Intel.

The truth is AMD has always had a good chance to make a difference, had we ever realised that.

For a better value product to have any effect on the overpriced one people actually have to make the choice to buy it instead.

Don't pretend anyone is going to buy Intel instead of Nvidia.
 
And you know what, Intel knows this phycology, just as well as Nvidia do, but 15% is better than 0.

AMDs rep is sky high these days thanks to ryzen, they price RDNA 3 to get the attention of the staunchest Nvdia fanboys then gamers will flock to them because Nvidia are pricing so many people out of gaming. Pricing nearer Nvidia is getting them nowhere unless it's a mining boom.
It would help if they can beat nvidia on all performance fronts like RTX. If AMD can come back against the mammoth that is Intel, they can against Nvidia.

Yes, exactly, but not if they don't actually take Nvidia's market share and they aren't doing that if people don't shift their buying habits.

I have been Nvidia for 6 years now, unless AMD's GPU's aren't good i will be making a conscious choice to switch when it comes to me buying again.
