For context: DirectX support in Intel’s ARC GPUs were really lacking due to running on a transition layer, it was one of the sore spots of their new graphics card. This update looks like it will help massively.
I sadly don’t have the time nor the nerves to fight my PC, but I sincerely hope that intel GPUs become a force on the market to consider in the future, prices from the big two are way too high, competition might change that.
With the huge improvements that have been putting into their drivers, I think their 2nd generation cards will actually be worth getting. At least in comparison to a Radeon.
Hopefully. I don’t really see Intel going toe to toe with Nvidia in the enthusiast market with the 4080/4090 but I could see them targeting something like the 4070 from Nvidia or the 7800 and future cards from AMD on their high end.
This is where the bulk of the market is. I spent 600eur on a4070 recently and I still feel sour about it. Intel needs to enter this market.
