- Intel has published a new job advertisement on Linkedin
- It is for an engineer to work on high -end discreet discreet graphics cards
- Some feared that the agreement that Intel concluded with Nvidia throws a serious doubt about the discreet arc, but this announcement suggests that a new powerful GPU is on the way
Since the announcement of the main Intel and Nvidia agreement, by which Team Green will provide RTX GPU chips for Intel SoCs in laptops and laptops (and even more), a doubt has been thrown on the future of the graphic solutions of Team Blue.
Intel said that the new NVIDIA partnership does not change its existing GPU roadmap, but the most skeptical of us were certainly concerned about what it could mean for discreet arcs of Team Blue in particular, although the work apparently continues on these products.

Why would Intel advertise so that someone works on a high-end office GPU if he was about to abandon the whole range of discreet arc graphics cards? Presumably, this would not be the case; Although a single work announcement obviously does not give us the complete image here.
However, it is an optimistic index according to which the work will continue with the Arc graphics cards, and that Parts its discreet GPU efforts, as well as with integrated third generation graphics (Xe3, known as Celestial on the desk).
Analysis: Look in the gpu crystal ball
What we don’t know is what graphics card it could be. Are there any plans for a high-end celestial GPU? A leakage leak on X (RedgamingTech) drops a vague index that could be druid (which is the fourth generation range for the arc). There was also Rumors on a high -end battle graphics card that could still be incoming. Your assumption is as good as mine – for what it is worth, a celestial product is my money here.
In some ways, no matter what this product really turns out – if there is a product at all – but the important thing here is that it is a clear clue that Intel does not abandon its office graphics cards. Or at least the company does not yet plan to do so …
To be clear, Intel did not indicate that it will abandon the development of the office GPU anyway. The company simply declared that its existing roadmap remains the same, without specifically clarifying that this means discreet GPUs, which leaves a little room to doubt; Especially because, frankly, there has already been a serious doubt about the future of Arc Office graphics cards.
We have seen discreet GPU sales figures suggesting that at this stage – two generations in the Arc range (Alchemist came first, then the battle trunk) – Intel less than 1% of the market (Nvidia holds a monopoly up to 94%). This makes me fear that if it reflects the market relatively precisely, Team Blue can consider saving a lot of money which is undoubtedly pumped in R&D for the discreet range of the arc by simply getting rid of it.
However, we have had clarifications elsewhere, as reported by PC players, that the new NVIDIA agreement concerns the data center more than consumer PCs. And, according to the law of Youtuber Moore, the sources of Dead, any impact on the consumer front will probably be felt only at least 2028 with Lake Titan of Intel, which could come with an integrated GPU of Nvidia (perhaps in certain chips, with others always using an integrated arc graphic).
That said, Moore’s law is dead is very down on the prospects of discreet arc GPU, calling them effectively dead at this stage. And unfortunately, I can easily consider a discreet arc being preserved (possibly), although this professional announcement is at least a reason for a certain optimism.
And if we see a high -end battle graphics card emerging in the near future – rumors have blown rather hot and cold on it, but apparently, it will always happen – it will be an even more hopeful sign, especially if it is well at the price and perhaps starts to cut more GPU market for Intel.
I certainly think it would be a shame to lose this third horse from the office graphics card race. The existing battle GPUS (B580 and 570) were well positioned competitors with a high -value proposition.
