Late, but still a fascinating entry, bodes well for the future, 580 is already proving itself as a serious contender at that price point.It's way too late to the party.
The progress made with drivers so far is impressive, at the very least they are showing that they are fully committed to competing in the market. Arc is a big deal for Intel, a lot of consumers, myself included, took a gamble on their cards because we want to see them succeed, we want the GPU market to get shaken up, AMD has been very uninspiring, seemingly content with being second place in a 2 horse race, let's see how they feel about potentially falling to third behind the new kid.The conclusion at the end is promising, if they get their drivers right and fix performance on other titles it'll blow the other competition out of the water. The problem is, the next lineup cards might be ready by then.
Obvious bios. So over the top and of a non reality.Late, but still a fascinating entry, bodes well for the future, 580 is already proving itself as a serious contender at that price point.

If Intel plays this right they will bank a lot of good will among the early adopters as well as convincing others to perhaps take the plunge when the next generation comes out.
I remember when $350 usually always got you second best with a Nvidia card.All I can say is competition is good. The low end offerings this gen are an insult. Who remembers when $249 got you damn near top-tier performance? Pepperidge Farm fuckin' remembers...
I was more referring to the Ti 4200 and 8800 GT. Both were budget performance cards that punched way above their weight. And that wasn't that long ago. 5-10 years? You say $350 for second best, I think GTX 970.I remember when $350 usually always got you second best with a Nvidia card.
8800GTS 512mb - 9800GTX - GTX 470 - GTX 570 - GTX 670 which I owned at one time, I wouldn't even be able to get a 4060 at that now days smh.I was more referring to the Ti 4200 and 8800 GT.

All I know is that you can get a picture of the box that holds a 4090 for a lot less.I remember when $350 usually always got you second best with a Nvidia card.
Well... Judging from my 3080 FE box, I bet it's very nice. I'm sure we'd all rather have the expensive piece of hardware inside it, thoughAll I know is that you can get a picture of the box that holds a 4090 for a lot less.
Sadly, no. The 4060 series is a sick joke at the expense of the unwitting and unknowing. If it'd have been as fast as a 3070 Ti or 3080 I wouldn't be so harsh. The 60 series used to be a decent value proposition, and well... Not anymore.8800GTS 512mb - 9800GTX - GTX 470 - GTX 570 - GTX 670 which I owned at one time, I wouldn't even be able to get a 4060 at that now days smh.

I remember. The Ti 4200 was 2002 and the 8800 GT was 2007. I've had both GPUs. I shouldn't have said the 5 part. It's been at least 9 since the 970 launched. The 1060 filled the $300-350 slot with Pascal, thus the end of second best for $350 or less.5-10 years?....
Try 21 years for the gf4 ti4200 and 16 years for the 8800gt.
