Should You Buy an Intel GPU?

[Daniel-ughm]

The rtx 3050 seems like nvidias way of testing how high they can go with price to performance and still have people buy it, seeing how most gpus in its price range speed past it

I got an arc a750 for Christmas. We draw names. So I got it for free to replace my 1650 super. Pretty excited for future driver updates

Competition is good for the consumer! Bring on Intel GPU's!

[bilalsadiq]

A major sticking point that can't be overlooked is the driver support like you mentioned. Whilst the card happily trades blows with AMD and Nvidia, for a much cheaper price, PC gamers want stability and performance in both new AND older games, the Intel drivers only really work well on Direct X 11 and 12 games, along with Vulkan. Until DX 9 and 10 (and OpenGL) games can work reliability with older games and significantly close the performance gap, alot of people are going to think twice before picking up ARC.

As a guy with a a750 I got for 179, I can confirm that it is fire 🔥

Intel Arc GPUs also have AV1 encoders. Mainly it is a better choice for productivity purpose!

I’ve been running a sparkle A770 for the last 4 months and I have to say I’ve been noting but impressed by it, I heard of the issues with it and personally haven’t had any yet, it runs all my games either even or just behind my 3070 by a little and ever updated it just gets even better

Got an a750 with my Christmas build its been great after updating the drivers for games and video editing even when limited by 8gb of ram. Even works for old games and emulating

I hope Intel's next GPUs reach the upper-midrange to high-end market so they can really compete in a wider spectrum of the GPU market.

Most people with a750 and a770 are hella happy with their monsters

I've had an A750 for the about 8 months now and it went from "I could live with that" to "It just works". Not to mention their driver updates are very aggressive. And they have real driver support. ie someone responds anywhere from 1-4 hours to address a software issue! People should be thinking Intel.

[Lucius]

Cheap and good price to performance ratio. I'm aware of the issues and I will be buying one soon.

[OhNoBsod]

the new drivers improved things really well. They have improved from 2022 though

[ZweiMPeter]

Tbh I upgraded in October my pc with an arc 770 16gb.
And So far I haven't had a single problem. I only had a short graphics bug in cs2 once, but after I restarted cs2 everything was fine. I can't complain about Intel GPUs.

[Lemoncit]

Yeah, drivers are not great. But if we don't encourage supporting a new company NVIDIA will always control the prices of GPUs

[yorichie]

I really love your content. Sadly, I do not live in the States, and instead, I live on the other side of the world where there is no Microcenter, but there are a lot of scammers in the used tech market😂

I live in the Philippines, btw.

[DaBrain]

The step up to the B580 is insane....
I'd love to see steps like by Nvidia for mid-range.

[manojkumarlondhe]

Very beautiful explanation for Intel GPUs. People are either scared/confused or ignorant about these GPUs.

[mathewreyes]

I got one for 165 at micro center, it runs beautifully, the driver updates have helped tremendously

[NiXx]

That GPU costs 380$ here in Serbia. Yall got it easy
