When I first heard the news about intel doing graphics card, I found it funny. I thought, "are they really this desperate?". But reading the reviews and hearing other peoples experience, they seem to actually deliver something valuable here, wow

My only concern is bugs with the drivers, but I'm sure they'll iron these out

    My experience is admittedly second-hand, but it seems this time around Intel realized they need halfway decent drivers to be competitive, so they have been making a lot of improvements in that area. They've rapidly improved driver compatibility with a lot of games, such that this new GPU of theirs is actually worth a consideration, unlike the previous generation which felt a little more of a proof-of-concept product.

What's the compute support for Intel cards look like? I'm crossing my fingers for a 16GB Battlemage card - it'd be an instant buy if the setup for local inference was relatively uncomplicated.

It looks great, especially at the price. Bravo Intel! I want to see Linux numbers and driver challenges before I make any assumptions, and I want to see the competitors’ offerings. It’s a good play.

It's mostly suitable for either modern DX12 games at medium settings or computations. No proper gaming at 1440p, even 4060ti can't do it.

Thank you for the submission, but next time please keep the original title.

As long as it's better than the i740 I used to have!

Is it interesting for LLM inference?

just cant wait for LTT or someone to do a proper review on it

  • Cumpiler69 a year ago

    LTT and "proper review" don't really go together anymore.

    Gamer's Nexus, Der8auer, Wendel from Level1Techs, Hardware Unboxed are where the "proper reviews" are these days.

    What's left of LTT is a morally bankrupt entertainment channel who sometimes reviews PC hardware between reviewing sponsored products, AliEpress junk and upgrading his house or the setups of their employees for clout and monetization.

      Their review of the card was perfectly fine

      • Cumpiler69 a year ago

        How do you know it was "fine" when LTT has a history of publishing reviews full of mistakes it never bothers correcting?

    This article already has detailed review, what details do you think are missing?
