2018 Hardware Thread

Yep, it requires a lot of work to rewrite the new code, but once it's done, it simply "just works" as nVidia says.

I would buy 2 x RTX 2080Ti, but I can't currently even afford a decent computer that makes any sense to build around them.

I've been studying the differences between older mobile nVidia GPUs and a few years old Intel integrated GPUs.

I'm quite impressed how far Intel has come. On Intel HD 515, we get about +40% performance in a neat passive cooled 15W package compared to GT 540M and this is with 1/4 the amount of shader cores, lower clocks and using only DDR3 memory.

I'm quite confident that Intel has all knowledge it requires to create a really competitive discrete GPU in 2020. It might even blow all the competition out of the water. At least I would not be surprised if this happened.

I'm surprised Intel dodn't get into dedicated GPUs long time ago. Ever since GPU market got down to only 2 manufacturers (that matter). competition between AMD and Nvidia looks more like secret cooperation than competition.
