So is a Intel GPU worth it yet?

[Edward78]

Just wondering when it will be worth getting a Intel GPU, I am listening to a video, but he mentions places to buy & I know that is a no no here.

Just a matter of time - but currently still considerably behind the competition. They need to be more competitive with pricing too.

They are way cheaper than Nvidia & AMD over here.

What is your usage?

Around $300 AMD is maybe #800ish & Nvidia is $1000+.

Presumably a770 vs 7900XT(/X) vs 4080 super....They're equivalent, right?

It's trading blows with 6600XT at 1080 and 1440p, while costing a fair chunk more (at OCUK prices):
