Intel Arc series unveiled with the Alchemist dGPU to arrive in Q1 2022

If true that would surely eclipse anything either AMD or Nvidia have done in terms of anti-consumer practices. Can't believe that is actually the case, hopefully just a misunderstanding from someone.

Absolutely cannot see that being true. Would be the biggest own goal I can remember for a long, long time.

lol
AMD hasn't done anything anti-consumer, FYI!!
Intel anti-competitive. Why would you be surprised? Really?!
It's in its DNA
or a reason for a new class action lawsuit
I cannot spot the article in question; do you have a link? I wonder if this means that they are PCIe v5 devices? Then they'll downrate to v4 or v3 speeds on older motherboards but indeed only operate at full speed on new Intel motherboards.
seems to be for prebuilt pc's and probably very low power grunt wise. i found 2 articles mentioning it:-

That article is from Jan 2021 - it's a year old. And those CPUs and chipsets are well out of date now.

the embedding isn't working for me
hehe, i see the image in your quote of my post but not in mine, not for at least 10seconds or so, then it appears.
Thanks
I couldn't either. It would be headline news if true.
OP has made some pretty of the wall posts in the past so it could just be another one.
I mean, this is Intel...
Although i doubt they'd want to reduce their target audience/capacity to make money. I would've thought it would be more likely that there would be some sort of hardware tie up that gives you better performance on an Intel mobo if anything.

The article is from Jan 2021. I think we can rest easy.

It wasn't about Arc anyway. It was about a very limited number of DG1 cards specifically and solely for a small number of pre-built systems. Arc is DG2.
I would love to be excited about this release, but i think i would be very wary at the start/on release due to drivers etc.
Anyone think it is likely that Intel will have an incredibly stable/issue free driver straight off the bat? I have my doubts.
