Intel took an unusual (but strategically smart) approach to Arc’s debut, rolling out Arc 3 graphics for modestly priced portable laptops. It lets the company leverage its substantial strengths in
Five years after introducing a trendy Battle Royale mode and becoming one of the most popular games on the planet, Fortnite continues to attract players with constant iteration and licensed crossovers. The game isn’t without its issues, both within the playspace and without. But one move by developer Epic was met with near-universal praise: the decision to donate profits from in-game purchases to Ukraine beginning with its new season.
After just nine days, Epic announced that it&rsqu
There’s finally a third player in the graphics card game. In this episode of The Full Nerd, Gordon Ung, Brad Chacos, and Adam Patrick Murray are joined by Tom Peterson of Intel graphics to talk about Intel’s debut Arc GPUs for laptops, details about the company’s Xe HPG graphics architecture, and the sorts of features you can find in all-Intel systems now that the company offers discrete GPUs to complement its Core CPUs.
