- Intel has published a new LinkedIn job announcement
- It is for an engineer to work on high -end discrete graphics cards
- Some have worried that the treatment is introduced with Nvidia throws serious doubts about the discreet arch, but this announcement suggests that a new powerful GPU is on its way
From the announcement of the main Intel and Nvidia agreement, for which Team Green will provide chiplets of GPU RTX for Intel SOCs on laptops and hand hand (and more also), some doubts have been released on the future of the graphic solutions of Team Blue.
Intel has clarified that the new Nvidia association does not change its existing GPU roadmap, but the most skeptical among us certainly care about what this could mean for the discrete arc GPUs of the Team Blue in particular, although the work apparently continues in those products.

Why did Intel announce that someone works at a high -end desktop GPU if they were about to get rid of the entire range of discrete arc graphics cards? Presumably, I wouldn’t; Although a single job ad Obviously does not give us the complete image here.
Even so, it is an optimistic track that the work will continue with the ARC graphics cards, and that Intel is accumulating with its discreet efforts of GPU, as well as with integrated third generation graphics (XE3, known as Celestial on the desk).
ANALYSIS: Looking at the GPU crystal ball
What we do not know is what this graphics card could be. Are there plans for a high -end heavenly GPU? A filter that gets in X (redgamingtech) drops a vague track that could be druid (which is the fourth generation range for the arch). There has also been Rumors on a high -end Battlemage graphics card that could still be incoming. Your assumption is as good as mine: for what is worth, a heavenly product is what my money is here.
Somehow, no matter what this product really turns out to be, if there is a product at all, but the important thing here is that this is a clear clue that Intel is not abandoning its desktop graphics cards. Or at least the company does not plan to do it …
To be clear, Intel has not indicated that the development of desktop GPU will drop. The company has simply said that its existing road map remains the same, without specifically clarifying that this means discreet GPU, which leaves some space for doubt; Especially because, frankly, there have already been doubts about the future of ARC desktop graphics cards.
We have seen discreet sales figures from GPU that suggest that at this point, two generations in Arc alignment (Alchemist arrived first, then BattleMage), Intel has less than 1% of the market (Nvidia has a monopoly for 94%). What worries me that if this reflects the market with relative precision, Team Blue can be considering saving a lot of money that is undoubtedly pumped to R&D for the discreet range of ARC simply getting rid of it.
Even so, we have had a clarification from another place, as reported by PC Game, that the new NVIDIA agreement is more about the data center than the consumption PC. And, according to the YouTuber Moore Law, it is the source of Dead, any impact on the consumer front will probably not feel at least 2028 with Intel Lake Titan, which could come with an integrated GPU of NVIDIA (possibly in some chips, with others that still use integrated arc graphs).
That said, Moore’s law is dead is very depressed in the perspectives of Discrete Gpu of ARC, calling them effectively dead at this time. And unfortunately, I can easily imagine the discreet arc that is in (eventually), although this job announcement is at least one reason for some optimism.
And if we see that a high -end battlemage graphics card arises in the near future, rumors have exploded quite hot and cold in this case, but apparently it is still arriving, that will be an even more hopeful signal, particularly if it has a good price and perhaps it begins to create more participation in the GPU market for Intel.
I certainly feel that it would be a shame to lose this third horse of the desk graphics card race. Battlemage GPUs (B580 and 570) have been well positioned with a great value proposition.
