Intel Introduces New High-Performance Graphics Brand: Intel Arc - scheduled for Q1 2022.

Rooting for Intel here, hoping they'll break grounds in the GPU space. With Alderlake and DDR5 later this year and another player in the GPU market next, things in the PC space should get a lot more interesting.

If there's one thing I hope is that they bring some much needed GPUs to the low-mid range like they did with their i5 11400 in the CPU space. It is insane that we need to spend at least $400 to get a GPU that can beat consoles. Raja did bring out the the $200-$250 Polaris back in the day and it was pretty good value maybe only secondary to the a $250 1060 which was hard to find in that price range anyway. There is a clear gap in the market which I really hope Intel focuses on as they need people to try them out and what better way than to release GPUs in a space where Nvidia and AMD no longer care about.
