There are some signs that Intel is going to compete with the likes of AMD. We’re sure that there will be professional and datacenter GPUs that cost thousands of dollars, but we’re more interested in consumer or gaming graphics cards.
Intel’s pricing for its graphics cards is ultimately going to boil down to what segment of the consumer market it plans to capitalize on it. Intel Xe prototype shroud design (Image credit: Future) Intel graphics cards price Intel has been talking up its Xe HPG card a lot more recently, though, so a very late 2021 release can't be entirely ruled out either. It's definitely possible that we can see them at CES 2022, however, with an actual release following soon after. Given the semiconductor shortages in 20, it's unlikely that we'll get an actual Intel Xe HPG card going on sale in 2021. This is typically done in the final stages after the design and prototyping is finished and the graphics cards are ready for large scale production. More recently, Intel has confirmed that Xe HPG gaming graphics cards, previously known by it's prototype codename "DG2," is being sampled to graphics card partners (opens in new tab). It's not quite as robust as the offerings from AMD and Nvidia, but it indicates that Intel is pretty far along the road to releasing gaming-ready graphics cards sometime in the near future. On the other hand, Intel released a graphics tuning software and updated it recently with a video recording feature. It's unlikely that any of the renders we've seen so far will be the final design of any consumer-facing GPU. Team Blue kind of did the same thing at CES 2020, but this time clarified that these renders were for PCIe versions of the DG1 mobile chip that it would send to developers, so that they could code on the new hardware. So, at GDC 2019, Intel showed off some renders of its future graphics cards.
