very interesting, the next generation of PC handhelds might have a significant performance boost with this chip. The question is now pricing, because this won't matter that much if the handhelds using them are $1500.

Intel be like:

"My products are rand(50,80) % better than AMD. Trust me bro"

Intel has been beating mid range AMD and low end Nvidia for over a year so it's worth looking at.

Yeah. If you're looking for cheap bang for the buck Arc B580 is comparable to RTX 4060 while being half the price of a 4060. People are seriously sleeping on Intel GPUs. If you're on a budget Intel GPUs are the way to go.

Aren’t the drivers kind of ass though still?

Exactly what I've heard; essentially, they work pretty well for recent games, but they suck for patient gamers.

Kinda makes the idea of using them in a handheld a non-starter for a lot of people, since older games are amazing on a lower-powered handheld PC.
