NVIDIA and AMD Shouldn't Worry About Intel's Discrete GPUs
Back in 2018, Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) announced a new discrete GPU that it planned to launch in 2020. The revelation was surprising since Intel seemingly left the market over two decades ago.
It was also a bold move since NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) and AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) already dominated the discrete GPU market. But some analysts speculated Intel could leverage its leading position in CPUs to sell more GPUs, or optimize the GPU's architecture for its own CPUs.
Intel started shipping some of its new Xe GPUs to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in August. That might sound like bad news for NVIDIA and AMD, but the initial benchmarks indicate Intel's Xe GPUs won't threaten the market leaders.
