Intel reveals ARC A750 gaming performance in 48 DX12 & Vulkan games, up to 5% faster than RTX 3060
If Intel is true to their word about pricing similar to their dx11 performance, most likely it will be priced like a 3050. Of course the driver issues are still a thing so it's hard to recommend it to anyone regardless. But I will say that I like the scarpyness of Intel. It reminds me of the old AMD where you got a GPU with the hardware that's well above it's price class because their dx11 drivers were hella shit. I suppose it's Rajas trademark in a way cause he never could figure out how to make drivers work properly but boy did you get hardware with great longevity in the budget segment unlike the shat tier 1630 and 6400s we have today.
With that being said though, it doesn't matter how good the hardware is if the driver will force you to reinstall Windows which is why I still prefer modern AMD overall to their Raja version. Just not in the budget segment.
Intel Placing Bets On OneAPI’s Multi-GPU Support For Arc Gaming & Arc Pro Graphics Cards
Reminds me of when Raja went on stage, ran two RX 480s together in Crossfire and benchmarked AOTS claiming that two 480s > Nvidia 1080.
We know how that turned out...
Will AXG survive Gelsinger’s axe?

"So, is the company’s dGPU group next? Started in 2016 the dGPU group snatched showboater Raja Koduri away from AMD with great fanfare in 2017— it looked like Intel was all in. And they were. The hiring continued unabated up till 2021 when they got their latest prize, Tom Petersen from Nvidia. Almost anyone who could spell GPU could get a job at Intel.
Since Q1’21 when Intel started reporting on its dGPU group, known as AXG or accelerated graphics, the company has lost a staggering $2.1 billion and has very little to show for it.
In fact, the company has actually invested more than that. We estimate the number is closer to $3.5 billion (or more, depending on how Intel chooses to account for those investments, and the setup costs at TSMC)."
