Interesting to see all the going back and forth. I've been happy with a770 and it was a good deal at the time. The problem is Intel probably can't make money selling at prices like I got when I purchased it. If they don't make money they fold and we're back to two and a non competitive market.

What do you reckon, B7XX, B3XX or the rumoured B580 24Gb?

Intel Adds In Three New Battlemage PCI IDs At Linux Driver, Hinting Towards Release of New dGPU Models
Intel has added three new Battlemage PCI IDs to the Intel Linux kernel driver, hinting towards the release of new dGPUs variants.

I'd say two variants of G31. (just like G21 has two variants.) I don't think we see B3xx series. A3xx are doing their job until Celestial arrives. The third one could be the Pro version of G21.What do you reckon, B7XX, B3XX or the rumoured B580 24Gb?

Intel's dGPU train is in tunnel but still moving steadily it seems.
BMG- G31 is definitely coming. Thanks for sharing this.
Problem I see for G31 is that from rumours it seems probably 4070 performance with a large die which isn't ideal and sold at a sizeable loss. But if it's 4070 Ti performance or so in Raster and RT that'd be good.I'd say two variants of G31. (just like G21 has two variants.) I don't think we see B3xx series.

yeah, It is interesting to see how Intel places it against competition. nVidia has not yet announced 5070 non-Ti release date, which Intel probably wants to see first. AMD probably would also love to see 5070 perf as well before launching 9070 variants, but they do have their (small) market share to lose if they wait too long. Intel has almost nothing to lose. Except the R&D costs of chip if it never comes out, but that's same to everyone.
For me it's all about what's the difference from 3070Ti and how much it costs.
if you aren't in a hurry to get a new GPU it's going to be a question of studying your choice well.yeah, It is interesting to see how Intel places it against competition. nVidia has not yet announced 5070 non-Ti release date, which Intel probably wants to see first.

Since I have an A770 16GB already, while I really like the B570 or even better, the B580, which are ideal GPUs to build a first ever new PC for a friend, familiy, etc, having getting used to having 16GB of VRAM, anything less than that would be a downgrade.
Which leads me to the fact that efficiency is the most important thing for me, and I'm really interested in knowing how the RTX 5060 is going to fare.
The fact that worries me the most about the RTX 5060 are the typical nVidia policies to drastically reduce the VRAM on those. Even at 1080p like I plan to play at the highest framerates I can -got a 360Hz monitor-, 8GB fall short these days.
I have my priorities set up pretty well already, though the extended warranty of my 3070Ti ends not until April 2026.
- 8GB is not enough. 16GB would be good, 12GB or 14GB I can live with.
- Performance needs to be better than 3070Ti. RT performance should not drop a considerably, though it does not need to increase.
- Budget (that is overridable by standard 10%. in certain extremely good deal situations maybe by 15%.) will be 700 Euros.
Besides, as I told, 25 years ago I was waiting and following closely these to come out and revolutionize the industry... for several reasons, that did not happen. I do have two different revisions of chips though. They do make rather nice wall piece:
I have now confirmation that guys working on these back then, have now contributed the battlemage technology.
So after 25 years I have possibility to own working card of my youth idols technology inside? That's something that is very very very hard to beat by Team Jensen or Team Lisa.
B580 would been on my buy list if the financial side of real life would be more tolerable to buy such things as collectables. As it is slower than the 3070Ti I have now. Right now I can only afford buying stuff that goes to in use.
