God, I am so happy this dude is no longer at AMD.

Poor Intel though, I'd rather hand him over to NV...

You think the leather jacket man would allow him to steal the spotlight?

Intel has to get its act together and deliver now, trust me it will sell all their gpus in few days, if crypto crashes then Intel will not sell even 1 gpu hehe, market will be abundant with nvidia 3070 for 300 usd, right now 3070 are being sold for 1400 usd.

All the marketing crap aside, I'm happy they succeeded in the multi chip (tile) approach and got another step closer to a working chiplet design with I/O hub and all. Large memory tiles closer to the compute side makes me really excited. Maybe we just got closer to the stacked chiplet designs.

A bit sad to see it all shushed and laughed at. This is some impressive stuff they got there, if it performs at this stage or not I don't care. Might take a few iterations. It's new stuff, exploring new ways to move forward. Exactly what Intel desperately needs.
I just agree that maybe posting these marketing slides and throwing a big number was a tad to early when the product appears to be still in R&D with only some prototypes in the lab.

chaosmassive · Mar 24, 2021

this marketing slide gives me same exact vibe of POOR VOLTA, Polaris brightest star eva and shit marketing.

No good in his sodding palm we want GPU in ours the tit.

It is laughed at because Intel PR used to laugh at AMD for using chiplets "glued together". If you talk **** about the competition's products, it's only natural that all your **** pours back on your head when the competition comes out on top. It's like bullying the small kid at school, but 10 years later you end up working for the company that he owns.

I also wish Intel success with the tech, as competition is good for prices, but their PR really needs to learn to talk about Intel, not AMD.

Edit: Actually, I'm not even laughing at the product, but at the marketing material for using BS words like "magic tiles". Really, WTF, Intel?

This is obviously not a gaming GPU. It's a 100+ billion transistor GPU. For reference the GA100 has around 55 billion and goes for $10+K.

GeeBee · Mar 24, 2021

Indeed, Intel could be making bucketloads of cash considering we live in a totally screwed graphics card market at the moment.

Having billions at your disposal and not being able to do that, makes the whole deal even more peculiar.

It really baffles me... what the hell is going on in there?

Last time, I swear ... “Raja Hype” ™ This is what he did at AMD and we got Vega...while capable and innovative his hype was just that, Hype and nothing but exaggeration.

I can only picture Raja looking like this and talking like this:

"How exactly is a rainbow made? How exactly does a sun set? How exactly does a posi-trac rear-end on a Plymouth work? It just does."

All the talk about alchemy and magic almost had me thinking Intel took a page out of PowerColor's Hellhound marketing book, sorry, Necronomicon :laugh:

This guy is like a snake oil salesman since he joined Intel...
All big words, and zero concrete solutions.
Yawn, booooooring!!

How can you not be excited about a GPU (is it a GPU?) that we know nothing about besides the fact that at least one prototype exists, and has 47 "magical tiles"? People these days...

MikeMurphy · Mar 24, 2021

This isn't a graphics GPU fellas, it's a purpose-built chip for datacenter workloads.

It's an impressive chip sporting 100 billion transistors. For reference an RTX 3090 is approximately 28 billion transistors. It's also valuable R&D in terms of modular design.

Don't ever underestimate the engineering powerhouse that Intel is. Intel may have fumbled a node and mis-judged the benefits of chiplet design, but they are still a force to be reckoned with.

I get that, but then why is their marketing so juvenile? I doubt the potential customers of datacenter chips are looking for "magical tiles".
