    Do you know if, on paper, this kind of architecture can do well against desktop gpu (granted it would need to be bigger/have more units) ? Or some choices are really power consumption oriented, and would cut the performances too much, even when the same number of units that the competition ?

    Did I miss the Ray Tracing unit?

    If I interpret above roadmap (hints) correctly future architectures (GPU B or later) won't have any dedicated RT unit, but it sounds more like it'll be integrated in the pipeline.

    -------------------------
    Other than that the entire marketing material reminds way too much of NVIDIA, especially that page here: https://www.imgtec.com/graphics-processors/img-a-series-gpu/
