nVidia CPU when? I want my nVidia Core n9 9900K + Intel ITX 3080 Super Ti rig by 2022.

It'd be nice, but x86 licensing is a bad time.There's only three licenses that I know of, and Intel doesn't have a lot of reasons to license their IP to a competitor.

And certain Xeons (well, most of them).

Intel innovated a fair bit. The running joke in the 90s is that they stole Area 51 tech and released it to the public. 

The only real issue with Intel from 2011-2016 is that they sat on their advantage in the desktop space(they were only really competing against themselves). Servers were full steam ahead for MOAR COARS. 

they have been shady ever since the ibm deal in the 90s. they only seem innovative because they where drowning the competition all this time

[Tech_Dreamer]

i read "booted"  in a wrong way.  glad they still keeping on with the project.

[orbitalbuzzsaw]

I'd like to note something - When these new GPUs come out, optimization will be shit. Nothing will be optimised. Lots of stuff probably won't even run. Caveat emptor.

Pretty much this.  No company takes it easy or sits on products,  that is a fallacy made up by people who like to personify the corporate world rather than understand how it works.   All companies are constantly trying to improve their products and neither Nvidia nor Intel have been that far in front on the development front that they have been able to relax.  Even with AMD's previous absence from the CPU market and failing GPU designs Nvidia are (at a technical level) only 1 generation in front at best and Intel don't even hold that advantage.

I would expect Intel to target the budget and possibly mid-range first.  With mid-range cards like the 2070 now costing an arm and a leg, there may be room for Intel to take some market share.

I reeaaaly doubt they are going to launch next year.

I really doubt you can develop a decent GPU driver in 1 year because that's going to be the tricky part here. I think.

 

They already have support for it in their driver. See this:

nVidia bought them out and used the technology (SLi), so technically they didn't go anywhere.

GeForce FX was a child from that marriage... Dream's over, nightmare kicks in yo.

hmm ...  Is this why they turned off the electricity in half of California?  I always thought the "wind" excuse was BS, wouldn't be surprised if PG&E simply couldn't power people's homes and that GPU at the same time.

 

Joking aside, I hope that their GPUs aren't as fundamentally flawed (security-wise) as almost all of their CPUs from the last decade turned out to be.

[NumLock21]

inb4 Intel uses their CPU strategy and sells their GPUs in both locked and unlock SKUs.

 

Rumor: Developer kits are out in the wild.

Sweet. Hopefully it comes out next year and it has solid performance. I'd love to have more players in the graphics space. 

 

2019 rig update: 2600x + 1080

2020 rig update: 9700k + 2080s

2021 rig update: 10700k + Intel GPU

 

Good. Good. 

 

Hmm 9700k? Rather a 3600 or 3700x

A 3600 performs  in some cases even on par with a 8700k.. 

[SADS]

I really hope that the Intel GPU is competative and shakes up the market.

I refuse to pay NVs ridiculous prices. I feel i've been hoping AMD would compete at the higher end a bit too long now as every time i hear a rumour that they will, it turns out that they dont.

8700k competes with 3700x here

Okay, so if 3700x competes with 9700k, then why buy a 9700k

going from 2600x to 9700k? Just no sense

if you need that single core performance and not shit ton of coars/threads

this is only reason I am on intel myself

 

but i'd like to see some multitasking number/benchmarks included from these reviewers

Not the 9700k though. Which is what I'd be getting. The 9700k is superior in games.

Well, maybe we’ll have zen 2+ by then too . Haha

If you don't have a 2080Ti, which 99.7% of people on the steam hardware survey don't, it's basically tied at 1080p. 

 

If you have a 2080Ti and play at 1440p or higher, it goes back to being tied. 

 

I want to emphasize that it's better to go for "good enough" and to upgrade more often than to try to maximize any single metric. If you're within 10% it's basically the same experience - especially if you have an LCD screen which takes time to transition the image (vs say a crt)

I generally prefer Intel over AMD. I've had issues with first gen Ryzen. When I build the second gen Ryzen system, I might change my mind, we'll have to see.

The 3600 is behind in a title here and there, but yeah, mostly it's close...however, the 9700k is slightly ahead in some titles.

 

I don't pay for upgrades. So. I get closer to the top end.
