Pat Gelsinger Becomes First Owner of an Intel Arc A770 Graphics Card

[N3utro]

Nah.. Gelsinger is an engineer. He wrote a book on programming the 80386, and was the principal engineer of the 486. And before all that, he was an electronics tech in a local TV station. He actually worked his way up, associates degree while at the TV station, got his Bachelors and Masters while working as a QC tech at Intel.

I'd be shocked if he didn't keep a high end PC with CASE/CAM software on it at home. For that matter, I'd be surprised if the guy didn't have a fairly well equipped electronics lab, just for fun.

He's the CEO of intel, his life is probably this: wake up, work, sleep

If Intel goes along with this then I must say they are brave, second hand gpu market will obliterate everything, I have been telling since last year that as soon as eth went pos, you would buy a 3080 for 400 usd or even less and you will remember me when that happens later this year or in Q1 2023.

Yeah, the market is about to deteriorate rapidly, and tons of used cards will be available for cheap. A quick look at used cards on eBay has already shown at least a 50% drop in prices. You might be taking a chance on a used card, but it’s still way cheaper than it was 6 months ago already.

Pat inserts card, boots up....

Wait... where are the drivers?

 

[Robin Seina]

I wonder if Pat won't be the ONLY owner of said card(s).
