Intel announced their Arc B-Series GPUs and XeSS 2, the day after CEO Pat Gelsinger retires
3 December 2024 at 10:24 pm UTC Likes: 3

Dead product line, has no USP or reason to exist. The losses Intel have taken from the ARC disaster are unimaginable.
These new cards can barely compete with previous generation Nvidia/AMD cards, have nothing on current gen and are dead in the water against the upcoming releases from both competitors in Q1 2025. RIP.
