Why doesnt Intel start manufacturing dedicated GPUs? http:/

Think about that for a moment, their Iris Pro Skylake GPU needs around 120mm2 without the eDRAM to reach 6850 performance, that's half the die area of a RX 480 and a 1060, but around 5-6 times slower.

Do you understand? Intel's GPUs are complete garbage.

Where are you seeing 120mm2?

Im seeing 49mm2 for the 6200.

On top of that it only draws 15watts.

Plus its 2 years old, it doesnt seem that Intel is putting enough focus into it.

They wanted to, there was even game sponsored by Intel and was supposed to come out at the same time as Intels GPU.

It kinda died and I don't even remember games or GPUs name.

Probably because everything theyve done outside of cpu's has been underwheling. Their ssd's, although fast an reliable, are horribly overpriced and thus nearly completely uncompetitive. I had a wireless adapter from them that was total garbage, too.
And they had a prototype dgpu some years ago. I cant remember if it released or not, but it was abandoned almost immediately.

They tried, they failed. Also the profit margin is low compared to CPUs, esp. server stuff

Maybe this?

It wasnt a true dedicated GPU, it was some hybrid between a CPU and GPU.

GPUs just seem easier to design compared to CPUs. With a CPU, you dont have the luxury of just adding more cores and calling it quits like AMD and Nvidia often do, you actually have to improve the underlying architecture.

Why would they when iGPUs are more than enough for 90% of users?

Well they tried more than half a decade ago, their integrated GPUs have made leaps and bounds since then, and are now on par with 650s and 750s, and much, much more efficient.

It must be the profit margin, not enough pc gamers to justify it.

That's GT3, not GT4

>>55746953
Intel is years behind in terms of drivers

>>55747323
Intel only makes good CPUs , NICs and server SSDs, pretty much everything else is a joke.

>>55747356
Oh yea it was, at the time there was some decent hype for the game, project offset after Intel picked it up.

it was a shit shot to begin with, nothing really came of it other than Xeon Phi is kinda same idea.

What is ultimately the reason a business ever chooses to do anything?

>>55747362
That has been the case for a long time now.

>295x2 still fucking shit up

can't even breathe

>>55747470
Dunno lol.
