    Is Intel making a play for the console market with Arc?

    The next generation of consoles - not the refreshes - are expected around 2027. So far AMD have provided both CPU and GPU to both Sony and Microsoft, to their considerable profit. But by that time Intel will have had 3 generations of Arc under its belt. That will have given them a track record...

    Nvidia should copy Microsoft and offer hire-purchase

    With the next generation of consoles Microsoft is offering a hire-purchase deal. Pay a small monthly payment - effectively 0% APR too - for two years. With GPUs costing the same (give or take) as consoles, offering this sort of deal would nullify the price advantage of consoles.
