It's like the Lib Dems trying to compete with Conservatives and Labour...
Is anyone really going to trust Intel's brand new GPU and then give them £800?
Ya'll mental if that's the case.
P.S as I'f I'd ever buy a Intel GPU. Aside from performance, imagine the drivers.
We have a pig worker shortage at the moment in Norfolk If you'd like to earn a few extra quid?
Imagine if you have to pay for CPUs/GPUs.Imagine if the Intel direct store is open in UK selling gpu's before AMD :kek:
I think they just won't sell then, in big numbers anyway. Higher end cards are readily anyway, so if this leak is anything to go by people who were waiting will just go red or green now.
And with rumours of 6500xt and 3050/ti being available soon, i'm not sure Intel will do very well there either.
Who wants to guineapig previously mass untested drivers?
The last low end card was the GT1030 truly... I remember the days of the 8400GS and Radeon 2400 PRO that were a big step up from previous low end cards. Not any more.Who cares? There's plenty of high end cards already.
Hopefully Intel's lower end cards will be competitively priced. That's where the shortage is. In fact, no low end cards have been released yet by either Nvidia or AMD.
Intel needs to break into the high end / desktop graphics market, so I expect their prices to be more competitive than AMD's and Nvidia's, but it will depend massively on the number TSMC can produce (assuming they have settled with TSMC's 6nm EUV fab. process).
It might also be affected by a potential refresh of RDNA 2 GPUs in Q1/Q2 2022, especially if both Intel and AMD are using a similar 6nm fabrication process.
