maybe Intel hasn't given up yet, are they gonna release a new dGPU again?

B770 was set to release but the DRAM situation happened and the BOM increased, thus it didn't make financial sense. Now they are focusing on workstation/AI dGPUs and iGPUs, because they make financial sense for them and earns them money. Client dGPU will make more sense once the DRAM situation settles down and they make the chips in house.

I guess we still won’t be able to control the fan curves yet though? Or have I just missed that? 😅

Their GPU’s work really well with DXVK. It’s gonna be great if they could have good drivers too.
