Intel Updates Q1 2022 (GPU, CPU and Foundry)

4 million = soft launch. Plus a delay (and realistically it hits volume closer to Q3). Means they have no confidence in their drivers, so anyone buying their first gen is just angling to be a guinea pig for them to work out the software.

Meanwhile, a quarter later, Nvidia & AMD are going to deliver 4x the performance of Intel's best, and magnitudes better driver (esp legacy) support. GLHF

I have been saying this since MLID declared Intel the saviour for Q1 this year about 6 months ago.

He even had the cheek to say "if you don't believe that you're an idiot, come on guys this is Intel" The thing is Intel have some extremely good Male Bovine Crappers, combine that with people who want to believe results in some of these tech journalists being far too bullish in all things Intel, not all tho, quite a lot of them have woken up to the fact that Intel are far more talk than action.

Intel are not competing with the RTX 3070 / RX 6700XT, but rather the RTX 4060 and RX 7600 and would be lucky to match those for performance.
 
Making high performance GPU's is probably the most challenging thing you can do in chip design, the complexity of them is mind-boggling, Nvidia and AMD are by far and a long way the industry technology leaders in GPU design full stop.

Exactly this.What part of "Q1 removed from Intel's web site" that was reported in several tech sites do rabid Intel influencers still insistent on preaching a destop GPU Q1 launch not understand.

Is it really surprising if a product is delayed at the moment? The AMD 5800X3D was due for release late 2021, revised date, Spring 2022.
Factories are currently shutting in China due to Covid so more delays for products.

Today a laptop manufacturer announced it was delaying the launch of new models citing a shortage of components

Captain obvious
 
That stream was a pile of poo. The desktop tease at the end said absolutely nothing new, except that they'll be selling "limited edition" cards (at a massive markup no doubt). Intel have completely missed their window.
 
would have been great if they showed some of kind performance numbers

Even the laptop ones they compared it to Intel's own :(
