The Intel Arc A750 makes the RTX 3050 look pathetic and even gives some tough competition to the 3060, though AMD's RX 6600 makes Intel's offering a little less enticing. Still, it's good to see competition from Intel in the GPU space.

Hoping Intel keeps making cards. Competition is good for everyone (except AMD and Nvidia).

They aren't dropped the GPU business. They already have a couple generations coming out over the next couple of years. They have reported they are selling more GPUs. And their drivers have gotten a lot better.
·
Nope. I work for a company that get lots of Intels test business. GPU business not going away...if anything, its a big part of their future lol. They made the right moves attacking the affordable sector first to iron their kinks out. Arc was never meant to be a big hit off the bat, nobody shouldve ever expected that. The improvements theyve made "thus far" have been more than impressive. Battlemage is where the big guns will be revealed. Theyll still be behind by that time, but it will rival current gen of high end cards from the competition sans 4090. You gotta root for them because both amd and nv really suck these days regarding pricing and need to be humbled.

Quote from wherestheanykey :
Many forget, but there was a time where graphics cards were split among at least 6 different companies all doing their own thing.

DirectX and OpenGL (superseded by Vulkan) didn't exist, so software was purpose-built for compatibility with one card.

If Intel wants to develop industry compatible high performance GPUs, it's only a matter of time before they integrate it back into the motherboard like we had 20 years ago.
Pardon me. I found one, but these do appear to be rare: https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/985.../index.asp

I gave the 'deal' a thumbs up but don't see the appeal of the Intel GPU. I think they will soon drop the graphics cards product line just like they exited from the SSD business. Don't even know why they entered the GPU market other than latch on to the tail end of the crypto mining craze. They seem to be trying to seize the lower to midrange, but AMD has it locked up.

Where have they exited the SSD business? I just got a 2TB NVMe and pretty sure they're still doing enterprise storage.

Edit: Genuinely curious

Motherboards with integrated graphics were common from the mid '90s through late 2000's.

You're thinking way too small. Intel entered the GPU market entirely for one reason: enterprise/ cloud providers sales. The gaming GPU business is just candy to them. They want to sell Intel CPUs packaged with Intel GPUs/machine learning/AI skus to enterprises and cloud compute providers enterprises are and will be using. Doesn't mean they're not serious about PC gaming, but it's not the motivation.

Quote from PaulL3556 :
Driver's are stuck at ~ rx 6600 level of performance and stability is still not good. Give it a 2 more years before buying. They need to put r&d money into more programmers. The job market is tight for that level of expertise.
I dont agree. While Arc isnt perfect, this is a far better buy.

Current drivers are significantly better than launch ones. Performance is between 6700XT and 3070 levels in a lot of newer games, and at worst around 6650xt levels.

If you enable ray tracing Arc blows RDNA2 out of the water, as the RT performance is RTX 3000 levels/ RDNA3 levels. For example here is Hogwarts Legacy 1440p RT, no upscaling:
https://tpucdn.com/review/hogwart...0-1440.png

XeSS is a much better upscaler than FSR, but can do both XeSS and FSR.

The XMX cores accelerate AI application use, like upscaling in Gigapixel AI and GANs. It's not as widespread adopted as CUDA, but better than what AMD offerings in AI performance.

Encoding quality and performance is the best in the industry, Quicksync is better than NVENC and both are better than AMD, even on their newest flagships. The A750 also supports AV1 encoding, which neither RDNA2 or RTX 3000 support (you have to pay $800+ for their latest GPUs to get this).

I have to walk back my claims a little. There were integrated graphics chips, but they were just for display purposes and really didn't do much in the way of gaming or video editing. They just made the computer work without having an additional graphics card before graphics integrated on the CPU was common.

Many who did not expect Intel to make graphics cards like these were already feed up with bad intel drivers when Vista was released; with luck those who experiment with these cards will fare better.

GPUs were integrated onto motherboards decades ago (example Intel i810, 1999). And yes, Intel made and sold motherboards to consumers and OEMs.

You are either very young or your memory is failing you. Intel made many motherboards and yes GPUs were integrated directly into the chipsets on the motherboards at one time. They were very low performance but they were still GPUs.
