Intel Detailing Their Arctic Sound Discrete GPU This December; Aiming for 2020
According to DigiTimes, Intel's top graphics executive Raja Koduri and other senior Intel partners will be hosting a discrete GPU-focused conference this December. The conference aims to instill confidence in shareholders and customers alike in that Intel is pursuing its high-performance discrete entry into the graphics card market at a fast pace. The GPU architecture, codenamed Arctic Sound, is expected to debut by 2020, aiming for the gaming, AI, and machine learning sectors - much like any GPU solution these days. It remains to be seen which details - if any - can be gleaned from this conference, but we'll keep you up to date when those surface.

Much sense is being made.
Also details are not known about Intel and AMD's cross licencing deal so they might actually legally use some of the patents.
If we get something as good value as the old i740 then I would be happy.
Will be awesome once Intel's GPUs hit the scene, with AMD/Intel supporting Freesync it means Nvidia will have no choice but to finally support it (officially, I know there's workarounds). And as a bonus Nvidia will also have no choice but to stop disabling PhysX on their cards if the primary GPU is AMD (as doing it for AMD and not Intel would be lawsuit territory).
There's a bright propitiatory free future ahead :D
a.k.a. a "strait" and, as far as I can tell, there's no "strait" called "Arctic Sound." Intel is making stuff up.
“In geography, a sound is a large sea or ocean inlet, deeper than a bight and wider than a fjord; or a narrow sea or ocean channel between two bodies of land.”
