    this or 4060

      This will give ongoing issues with poor support by games and programs.
      In the cases where it does work with proper support it is great bang for buck.

        Drivers are a lot better then they were on launch. My son has a A750 and has never had any issues. I am sure there are still some games out there that have problems though.

          I'm just echoing this for the A770. Son plays all top end games at 1440 on a 165hz legion monitor. Never have any complaints from him, and he is a complainer.

    • sallan75 on 03/12/2024 - 11:48

      I had the same dilemma, memory setup much better on the A770, but I didn't trust the drivers. Ended up with an RTX 4060 for DLSS,

      Probably B570 if you have to buy soon. Announcement at 1 AM AEDT, reviews on the 13th.

      Odds on to be cheaper and better than this, albeit with 6 GB less VRAM which may make it slightly problematic for 1440p ray tracing.

    Livestream tomorrow at 1AM EST on Intel Youtube channel for new GPU architecture if you're interested

    New Battlemage cards will come out mid dec. They appear to be all midrange cards though with 12GB of VRAM.

    • donman92 on 03/12/2024 - 11:48

      Finally, something of Intel to be hopefully decent lmao

    • jasswolf on 03/12/2024 - 13:22

      Appreciate the 16 GB model is solid for LLMs, neg is for value for general consumers in this GPU segment, as evidenced by the comments.

      Would expect 40 series price drops to quickly follow these Blackwell releases as they will heavily compete with AD104, 106, and 107, which drags down at least AD103 as well.

      If AD103 drops, this is bad value for the LLM enthusiasts too.

        A lot of ifs there - 16gb with good bandwidth for under $400 is pretty great as a way to start playing with Llama 3.1 8b etc and the card is decent as a games gpu for 1440 as well.

        • jasswolf on 03/12/2024 - 15:04

          Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA are all launching new cards over the next 5 weeks that will blow the value of this card out of the water.

          Hard to see a 4070 Ti Super staying north of $850 at that point.

        Do you know where to find llm benchmarks for consumer GPUs?

        I’m struggling to compare 16GB and 24GB cards on any llm related metrics

    Wow, the AC now has to be bundled to increase sales! How bad could this game be?

      bundling games with hardware is not new. it's just marketing

      • silverwalker on 03/12/2024 - 13:36

        They can bundle a better game to push a lot more sales. I.e. Civil 7 or Monster Hunter Wilds.

    Intel's CEO just left…Seems business is in a trouble.

      Board is a mess, hard for anyone to turn around 8 years of terrible long term planning after years of failing to progress.

      Gelsinger a scapegoat for not being stunningly transformative.

        Intel deserves its current bad situation. Recall it put litte improvement on Gen 4/5/6/7 until Ryzen gave them pressure but it was too late to stop losing market share.

        • jasswolf on 03/12/2024 - 13:19

          They were trying to make architectural and semiconductor material breakthroughs, but they all failed to be economical.

    Probably not a good buy considering Battlemage is literally just around the corner. If anything, I can see this going cheaper to clear leftover stock.

  • acAgenCy1 on 03/12/2024 - 12:55

    How does this compare to an RTX 3060ti (I can get one for $280). For playing games on a 1440p display on a budget

    • Yuri Lowell on 03/12/2024 - 13:03

      Performance wise the A770 objectively worse across the board. Sometimes a lot worse due to Intel's less mature drivers. However, you get twice the VRAM on the A770 and it's good for encoding/decoding AV1. The 3060 Ti 8GB VRAM is extremely bad and you will have to drop texture quality and settings for many modern games at 1440p. I reckon the A770 is the better deal if you see value in the added game bonus. If they were the same price I'd pick the A770.

    Bunch of defeatist speak here. Intel goes out and what? Competition is only good for us. AMD isnt the good guy here, they do offer the decided better products right now for us, that is true, but dont think for a second these large corporates think anything apart from their share price. the moment amd dont need the consumer market for their revenue stream anymore they will ditch us just like nvidia did

    And no, intel isnt done, they are on the only one capable of making, on a large scale, advanced wafers, thats US owned and is not located in a geographically messed up - korean pennisula/taiwan strait - region, they provide for themselves, entirely unlike apple, amd or nvidia. And to that end, the US government will continue cover for them. Last time samsung had a fire on their japan factory chip prices shot up, a war broke out? the nuke man having a melt down or pooh doing his own 3 day special operation? you are going to love the prices

    You can hate intel all you want with their cpu department but their gpu division is making big steps in the right direction.
