GPU Market is Saved – Intel Arc and The Future of PC Gaming



Several months have passed since Intel’s debut into the discrete GPU market. Their ARC A770 and A750 GPUs weren’t received that well on launch. Their performance was too inconsistent, there were many driver stability issues, and pricing out of the gate was perhaps too ambitious. However, with recent driver updates many of those issues that prevented them from being recommendable have been resolved and prices have been slashed on the cards as well. There they can now be seen as a viable alternative to AMD and Nvidia in my opinion. Along with that we have a bit of info to go over pertaining to their next generation battlemage GPUs. Intel can have a great opportunity to disrupt the GPU market and deliver a premium gaming experience to the masses with out leaving a hole in your wallet. It comes down to just how hungry they are to take some market share from their competitors.

  1. Arc is going to be amazing, I just know it. It looks like Intel's current drivers are limited the A770 the most, and when those get fixed and improved we could have a card ready to battle the used market.

  2. Intel can pass all of the "withholding tech" and sell a top card for $500 and wipe out both Nvidia and AMD. back when storage HDD was sold 8GB, tech was at 1TB. they only give us what we are willing to pay for.

  3. The A770 LE have the built to surpass the 6700xt and maybe the 3070. It's about the driver, software support to make it great. With the next generation Intel GPUs on the horizon and a hopefully support and love to this generation the A770 LE have the chance to became the best of this era of it's competitions. 3060 12gb makes the. 3060ti 8gb a headache, the 6700 just rare but that's all. AMD copying Nvidia now so Intel have the opportunity to kick in.

  4. even if the hardware is there, Intel sucks at drivers and software stack. they're a hardware company and software is a different beast. Without rock solid drivers and full software stack, it's not going to compete. You have to have both to take market share. As much as I hate NVidia's recent super greed mode, Intel just doesn't have the software team to turn things around in the next 12 months. Look at AMD drivers and software stack over the years.

    AMD rdna support for machine learning frameworks still sucks and isn't stable. Intel is way behind both NVidia and AMD for ML software stack.

  5. I don't think Intel need to worry about time too much to launch Battlemage. Nvidia & AMD are trending to go longer with their release cycles going forward due to low sales so don't be surprised if they both delay theirs around that time anyway.

  6. the fact that Intel doesn't support older APIs is the only thing keeping them from getting any real share, lets hope they update their software to support those APIs for this generation and next gen its built in right away before launch.

  7. Uh, just like AMD's Zen 1, the only reason Intel is selling so cheap is to gain market share and push past the myriad of early adopter problems. If ARC ever gets established they will just cash in at maximum price like all the others.

  8. I have intel arc 380 and Acer Biofrost a770 but arc control only shows the a380 but when I switch off the second pcie with a380 it shows the a770 and I can manipulate with this card. We need a solution.

  9. Intel CEO must wake up because AMD Ryzen 5 4600g Radeon graphic is much better than intel UHD 770 and it doesn't matter if you win the CPU clock speed race. Time have changed… elite Old gamer who have seen the edge of time have spoken.

  10. I mean, few should be surprised it took Intel a while to get their GPUs working. You can't expect to jump into such a place as the GPU market with no GPU experience and expect to instantly be fighting with the big boys.

  11. on steam survey 75% of gamers have nvidia gpu. intel cannot price their gpu like nvidia and expect people to buy it. nvidia has the brand name so even if intel gpu is cheaper the majority will buy nvidia.

  12. I personally wouldn't get my hopes up. Intel is again a generation behind, the ARC GPU competed with AMD & Nvidias last gen at twice the power consumption, and they had to sell it at cost. And they didn't sell at that price, so now they have to sell them at a loss. Do we really think they can fix all these issues in one gen? If they can't sell the cards at a profit, they're not going to do it. (Source: Moore's Law is Dead)

    I would personally LOVE if Intel come bring some competition to this dysfunctional market, so don't get me wrong. But let's not get our hopes up too much.
