What is the intel GPU driver scenario on Linux? What about game stability?
The real issue is spotty compatibility with older games or even things that nobody would normally think about being problematic, like emulators.
So I’m guessing that it’s worse than Nvidia but has the scope to become better because it’s open-source.
They are far worse than AMD, which is a very low bar already.

opengl perf is ok on linux, but vulkan is somehow much better on their windows drivers (for now)
Intel has like half the valuation of AMD at this point. So expect it to be as good as AMD to half as good.
It’s hard to beat Nvidia since they can hire more than 10x the people.
AMD has much better Linux drivers than Nvidia though, so that line of reasoning doesn’t really work.
fair point when it comes to gaming. My only contact point with Linux + GPU drivers is at work, where everyone would laugh if you’d suggest buying AMD cards
Now give me half that performance for $150, without enforcing that whatever it’s called bar thing! (neither of these two things will happen)
That’s unreasonable mate. Rebar is good and compute has always been cheaper if you stack more of it, to a point.
A compatible mono is dirt cheap anyway. Stop wasting electricity by running very legacy systems.
All modern motherboards support ReBAR. Not sure why you’d be against it.
Probably because they want to use this card with an old board, which means an older CPU, which makes no sense with a card this powerful, since it’ll drastically bottleneck GPU performance. It’s a common mistake people are making though.
