Perks of the job! Took a prototype Tiger Lake system for a spin on Battlefield V to stretch its legs. Impressive thin and light gaming perf with Xe graphics! Early drivers/sw, but it’s the first time I’ve seen this game run like this on integrated gfx. More later this year!
Fall is a season for change! Yesterday was my last day at Intel. I’m going to take a couple weeks with the family then I’m excited to talk about what’s next!
Today I was supposed to take delivery of the Tesla Cybertruck I ordered maybe…2.5 years ago? Canceled delivery, lost my order deposit.
It was the right call.
Got my hands on the retail version of the Gunnir Intel Arc A380 Photon 6G OC card. It's only available in China right now so WW buyers might not see it locally, but the build quality is exceptional. Mainstream 1080pMed gaming, DX12 Ultimate, AV1 HW encode, solid value!

It's an exciting day for the entire team
@IntelGraphics
as the A770 and A750 cards go on sale! A lot of people worked very hard to get us here. We have work to do to keep making Arc better, but proud of the team!
You can download the Intel PresentMon tool here: and then play around with real-time charting, GPU telemetry, capture data for post-gaming analysis. Lots of options, lots of powerful features. And you get to see cool visuals like this:

Today, Intel is launching a new blog on Medium, meant to talk directly to enthusiasts, technologists, technical press, and anyone else that wants to listen. Topics will be more technical, more direct, less fluff.
Hey everyone, I’ve got something incredibly cool I want to show you on Tiger Lake today…hoping to get clearance from the top brass here to post it. Stay tuned!!
Here we go! A bit early for baby boy Shrout to be here, but you can’t argue with kids these days. Hoping for smooth sailing but my buddy will definitely have some weeks in the NICU after today.
Everyone is talking about building fabs here in the Midwest, but my announcement today is that I have taken a role leading marketing for the AXG product group. This covers graphics, HPC, and more. Looking forward to helping bring Arc to life with

A few asked why we didn't show both of the PCIe 5.0 drives running at the same time. Fine

Gotta wonder how Pat @ Intel and Lisa @ AMD feel hearing Microsoft continue to say that they need Arm to compete with Apple. And Qualcomm gets credit for being the one to do it for Microsoft.
Hoping this was a spark to fire up x86 engineers! (Lunar and Strix incoming!)

I've been conducting this hype train for 3.5 years now and I could not be more stoked and proud to bring you the announcement myself.
Tomorrow you'll get to see reviews of the Intel Arc A770 and A750. Today, you can listen to TAP and me sit down with
@RajaXg
to ask about the product development, untapped potential, and more!
Next week TAP and I will have another video for you at where we tear down our Intel Limited Edition card and show you some interesting overclocking results!
Very proud of the engineering teams getting some dramatic DX9 performance improvements for Intel Arc graphics in a very short timeline. 1.8x avg FPS increase and 2.3x 99tha percentile FPS increase in CS:GO!!!
Our engineers have been hard at work to give a massive boost in performance to DX9 games. In fact, the latest

graphics driver is up to 1.8x faster on average FPS and more than 2x faster on 99th percentile FPS. See for yourself!

If there was ever a doubt that consoles are converging with PCs (just without the upgrade capability), this scale image should do the trick for you. Looks a bit like a NASA rocket comparison!
Lost in the shuffle of

@Arm
has surpassed

in market cap this week as well. The tiny UK-based IP company is now sitting at $143B vs the Santa Clara giant at $131B.
2024 is not only interesting, its critical for all chip players.
Looks like Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite is killing it early on this Copilot+PC race. Pretty amazing growth in design wins from previous generations Snapdragon processors!
@Snapdragon
I know it's not the most important element, but in keeping with our desire to listen to the community, our drivers are now less than HALF the size (~600MB) compared to older drivers (~1.3GB).
Where’s everyone going, to download the new Game On Driver? Keep up with Leon thanks to launch day support for Resident Evil 4 Remake. Get searching here.

We have been working hard on Intel Arc graphics over the last year, and it’s no small feat for the A750 to be named the

The results for $NVDA

are just amazing...
Look at data center - going from $4.2B in Q1 to $14.5B just 2 quarters later...whoa.
Gaming is up $400M too.

Excited to share some more about Intel Arc graphics with you today. We have a video showing the first bit of performance results with the Intel Arc A750 Limited Edition card. It's not ALL the info you want (yet) but we will have more soon!
Every time news reports how many new cases of COVID-19 are confirmed, they should also report how many total tests were run. Give us context. If new cases are 50 out of 200 tests, but then 500 out of 2000 tests the next day, that’s very important information.
I’m Paris with the family this week…but had to tweet this part of the M4 announcement out: "The Neural Engine in M4 is Apple’s most capable yet, and is more powerful than any neural processing unit in any AI PC today."
It’s 38 TOPS.

I'm convinced anyone telling you FaceID on the iPhone X is good, is lying. So many instances of failed activations. Laying on couch, scratching nose, hand-on-face thinking, kid on lap, eating. Even what I consider"optimal environments".
It would appear Mr. Linus Torvalds is not happy with Intel's response on the security issue thus far. "is Intel basically saying "we are committed to selling you shit
forever and ever, and never fixing anything"?"
It still astounds me how hard it is to just get pictures or video from an iPhone to a Mac or PC through a damned USB port. No, I don’t want to sync to iCloud and no I don’t want to install iTunes.
Still work to do for Arc with Starfield, but the SW team worked hard to get the community a driver that addresses a lot of the key functionality concerns. More updates coming this week!!
We've just posted a new driver for Intel Arc graphics users playing

Oryon based products could be even more disruptive.
Looks like the new Apple M3-based MacBook Air can still only support a single display output. Apple says it can support TWO if you close the lid aka turn off the internal display.
Such an odd limitation for a capable chip.
Preparing for CES is very different on this side of the fence. Fewer meetings to plan, less hotel to hotel travel, instead locked in rooms doing rehearsals and demos checks. Excited about what we are going to show and talk about this year! Pay attention tomorrow and Monday!
Really impressed with what
