techspot Intel sticking with Arc graphics cards, working on next generations

The thing I happen to believe—Pat, and I, and Roger, and Lisa, and Ryan, everybody is aligned on the idea—that graphics is a critical technology to the client, is a critical technology to the data center, and we want to start competing in the mainstream area where our competitors are making a ton of money. So all three of those things are critically important for Intel."

Intel says it isn't abandoning Arc graphics cards, is working on the next generations

Underwhelming performance, problems with DirectX11, and the need to enable Resizable Bar have been some of the...

Definitely the right strategy IMO but also definitely a bumpy road. I'm sure it will pay off eventually.

Yeah I definitely hope it will pay off as well. I had low expectations for this launch and they still missed the mark for me for sure, but we really need all the competition we can get in the tech world.

Intel has the money bags that if they keep working it, I think they can get to where they want to go. It will be good to have a 3rd competitor in the market.

Well, actually their stock has been hit pretty hard over the last few months in part due to this GPU fiasco. They have a lot of other investments going on right now so they are stretched pretty thin. But the GPU market is only going to get bigger on more lucrative so I'm sure they'll stick with it for the long term pay-off. Their investors don't like to think that far ahead though.
