    With 0 availability anyway ? :eek:
     
  2. Well considering the lack of alternatives (at MSRP), I'm all for supporting Xe graphics.
    I just wish Raja would learn the lesson for overhyping products for so long.

    Oh I'm all for intel being back in this market don't get me wrong. But I don't believe they'll be able to sell at a decent price, or have good availability given the situation, even if they want too.

    Thing about Intel is they are willing (and have the cash) to play "contra-revenue" games just to get back into the market. That said, those games didn't really go anywhere with mobile, plus I don't know what Gelsinger thinks about such games, and of course availability issues may may make sticker price a moot point in the short term.

    Is RTX 3070 ~4,1x GTX 1650?

  8. So the stronger 512CU part will be trading blows with Navi 22?

    Based on what benchmark? The 6700XT is not really faster than a 3070!

    Performance numbers look right in line with what they should be based on the Tiger Lake GPU, not that Firestrike is great or anything, but as a "benchmark" in the original sense, it's good enough in this case. Of course it also leaves hardware RT completely out.

    I'm not terribly worried about pricing and availability either, at least not if it comes in at the rumored time of the very end of this year or beginning of next. We can see PS5 ebay prices dropping, supply at least increasing notionally, so AMD is slowly getting its own supply situation under control; and Nvidia appears confident enough that can at least swap out 2060 production for 30XX series that it's doing that. So I doubt the chip shortage will be as bad for high volume, high profit margin stuff like GPUs by the end of the year. And hell, it might not compete with the high end, but I'm sure everyone will be happy to see rx6800/3070ti and below MSRP drop due to competition.

    I wouldn't get my hopes up that high tbh. IMO it will be good if it will be able to compete with 3060.
    And prices have nothing to do with competition right now.

    I'll do a bloody happy dance if it can compete with the 3060!

    5% off 3070 at the same die size is excellent for the first dedicated gpu for intel. This will give you a good start. I think also driver and games are not optimal for intel’s think with software optimisation it will age well and we will see similar performance..

    N6's peak density is close to double 8LPP's though.

    I think Raja is the reason I'm really hoping this can actually be a gaming card that is competitive with something. :)

    A FE at that ;)

    I keep it for "collecting" reason for now, not for sell :) (I'm not good at remembering nicknames on forums, someone asks on another topic already a few weeks ago, maybe it was you :D )
