Where is the Vega inside branding? It's been ready for a while now hasn't it...

It's somewhat acknowledged in the small letters at the end of the video: "Other names and brands may be claimed as the property of others".

But honestly, I doubt Intel wants to give AMD credit for its products by using some of their brands, and AMD won't talk about it either as it could encourage the purchase of Intel products instead of their own APUs.

I was joking about Vega inside. Apparently that was either photoshopped or was someone's name as part of an Intel employee promotion thing I guess? That's what I read anyway.

There must be some type of agreement in place. Radeon getting it's own branding and now it's in Intel products? That was planned no doubt. AMD would probably want to tell everyone that Intel is using their GPU. It would be an easy way for AMD to direct customers to Ryzen based systems, considering it's competitive with Intel on performance and price now. Intel wouldn't want that, so AMD probably can't use that in advertising, just public statements maybe. By leaving AMD out of the marketing, and having AMD keep fairly quiet about it, Intel can continue to remain high end in those devices without losing too many customers. They will end up losing some though. The question is will they lose more or less than they would have anyway? Intel obviously thinks less.
