> 1) Arc GPUs

I've been hearing the same story for 10+ yrs on how Intel is going to disrupt the GPU market any day now. For real.

Remember Larrabee?

It's not going to happen. Intel is not good at disruption. They're good at several things. But not disruption.

"This time fer sure, Rocky!"

Seriously. "More cache on die?" reminds me of the scene in "Smokin' Aces" ... "we did that. all of it."

Intel is ossified so totally that the top i dunno how many layers will have to be brutaly cleaved off it before the remaining pieces can hope to be productive again.

Arc is way more conventional than Larrabee though.

All they have to do is bring these to market without bugs and they'll sell like hotcakes.
