News Intel GPUs - Battlemage officially announced, evidently not cancelled

[IntelUser2000]

Rumor has it that AMD's next iGPU will be much more powerful, perhaps by adding a small RDNA2-based die to an MCM CPU.

In general I think that MCM blurs the lines between iGPUs and discrete GPUs, so it makes much more sense to do both.

Phoenix Point is a monolithic RDNA3 APU:

Question - AMD Phoenix/Zen 4 APU Speculation and Discussion

I can finally make this thread. Phoenix is indeed RDNA3. My advice to everyone: treat the old APU rumours as being out of date.

But yea it does make it easier once you move to that configuration.

Korea? That's interesting.

At least with dGPUs you aren't limited to a manufacturer. It's much easier to reach to consumers that way.

When will the first Intel video cards be coming out???

In the wise words of Mr Owl: "The world may never know..."

Man, Intel can't catch a break. Here we are discussing if/how/what Intel is going to release to compete with the 3070 & 6700xt and the RDNA3 and Lovelace/Hopper threads are dangerously close to terminal hype velocity already with 2.5x and 3x and 3.5x speed increases over the current top end parts.

Intel: "Hey, we've released out GPUS. LOOK THEY ARE BRILLIANT, for what they are!"
Community: "OMG, RDNA3 will walk on water, and Lovelace will singlehandedly cure all of diseases in this world! Clock speeds? OVER 9000!"

Intel: * ... * "F*** it. Im goin' to the bar."

Shouldn't be a problem for Intel to be the third best at something. They had a lot of practice being in that position during their 14nm era while TSMC propelled Apple and AMD to the forefront of the cutting edge.

And there are big rumors for BM too. Just need to get things shipping in a timely manner. Harder done than said, of course

Poor Ada!

Poor Ada!

Raja needs to stick to "poor Volta", he might get it right this time.

(I know I've probably used this joke once already in this thread, but I had to do it)

They're gonna have to rename it to Alchemissing at this rate.

Wish you were in their marketing department and slipped that into a slide.

 

[moonbogg]

I heard they are launching exclusively in Antarctica first before expanding the release to secondary regions.

 

[igor_kavinski]

The Alchemist train is all ready to go. Just waiting for the driver.

 

[GodisanAtheist]

Let the puns begin: I wonder if Alchemist is going to transmute a bunch of rare earth and silicon into an actual Video Card anytime soon...

 

[ultimatebob]

It looks like Intel is sponsoring gaming tournaments with its Arc brand graphics cards. Which is kinda awkward, considering that they can't actually buy the product yet.

IMO things look like they're moving just as planned!

Note that technically DG1 was 2020, but I'm pretty sure that's not what they meant (i.e. basically taking the iGPU and putting it on a board).

That's a lie (Intel not you), they might have tried to forget the i740 but I still have nightmares about it.

In fairness to Raja, that product got 10 nm'd.

Everyone just dogpiling on Intel right now, lol. It ain't looking good!

Intel's gonna Intel.

Why wouldn't you want to forget it too then?

In fairness to Raja, he had access to internal Intel progress reports, and he should have known how badly 10nm was going.

This is the funniest thread I've read in quite a while!

Thank that goof Raja for that!
