Intel has confirmed their plans for a discrete GPU to release in 2020

pete910Intel can't do **** in the GPU space without either Nvidia or AMD, they have all the IP needed.

But Intel has been producing GPUs forever(just not discrete ones) and is the #1 GPU manufacturer.

Anyway, I doubt they'll come up with anything competitive by 2020.

Ranking is debatable however, they still licensed the IP from NV/AMD over the years so the main point still stands.

DarthJarjarI wonder if it is a result of the aggressive progress of AMD in the CPU market. Intel needs to catch up on the GPU side.
Hopefully it won't get sour; competition might be good, but sourness opens the door to underhanded tactics.

Intel can't do **** in the GPU space without either Nvidia or AMD, they have all the IP needed.
And as Intel have partnered with AMD for their IGPu am guessing it's NV that will likely be more worried about this than AMD.

Pretty sure is also nothing to do with AMD's CPU gains as something like this takes years to plan/bring to market so would have been planned way before Ryzen's, erm rise
