Title: Market researcher reveals US$3.5 billion losses for Intel's GPU group, selling it off might not be a bad idea
Post by: Redaktion on August 11, 2022, 14:40:25
Despite bringing former AMD GPU expert Raja Koduri to oversee the GPU business, the situation is not looking good at AGX. Right now Intel's GPU business is estimated to have brought losses of US$3.5 billion as it keeps postponing the launch of the Ponte Vecchio HPC GPUs and the ARC Alchemist desktop GPUs. Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is rumored to be pondering on selling off the GPU business.

Would be a dumb move to sell, the GPU market is just going to keep getting bigger with AI, and Intel should be attempting to create a full SoC with a beefy GPU.

Intel has AI products that aren't GPUs. Movidius, Nervana, Habana.

There is no way they are getting out of the GPU market entirely because they will still be making iGPUs. But consumer discrete could get canned.

I agree with MarcoRCT , i am using my Geforce for many things: encoding and effects in Da Vinci Resolve,  rendering in Blender, i am not doing it right now but fluid calculations can use GPU and many more things.
GPU's are doing lot of work now. They are not just for games.

That said the Intel GPU's seems to have been developed by clueless people, their pro GPU's only have 6Gb VRAM who is the idi*t that made that decision?
