Are you playing on an 8K display or something?

For their performance level that’s fine though?

They have separate AI accelerator cards I believe?

If the price is good then it’s fine. Intel already has the funny ai card that maxsun makes.

16GB is great for current market, most games can’t even break it at 4k max settings right now, and even with the most demanding titles it’s enough for 1440p max settings with 60+fps. It’ll be great for 1440 for a couple generations, and if it’s in the budget or low-mid tier, where Intel needs to establish themselves, why is that bad? Nobody is expecting Intel to come out with a card right now that’s competing with a 40/5090.

NVIDIA seems to struggle to even make 16GB cards at all, let alone ones that aren’t outrageously high dollar MSRP. AMD has good ones but they’re all priced fairly poorly right now.

If Intel just releases a boring 16GB card but prices it competitively and produces enough that people can find them, that is NOT yawn that’s BIG NEWS because we need a competitor to bring the market back from crazy town where it’s been living since the cryptomining shortages.

You need AI accelerators, not GPUs.

Gaming is about to start requiring more VRAM too because of local AI. The two will become inseparable.
