At Least One AIB Halts Production ARC Graphics cards - Is ARC Doomed?
The launch of Intel ARC has been a catastrophe ever since the first boards were released in China. While Intel is full force damage control trying to get some of that R&D money back with lots of SKUs, dark clouds are hovering their GPUs.
Intel's release is not only mismanaged by a complete media blackout aside from some US-based media (EU media has been completely blocked with no communication whatsoever on ARC), restricting the products to China, bug riddled software, and mediocre performance. Igor's Lab says Intel's Arc graphics cards are pretty much doomed.
The board partners are causing the greatest difficulties. According to their sources, at least one major AIB is ending Arc graphics card manufacture "because to quality problems." and whatever that means is unclear.
Intel's Arc Alchemist discrete GPUs haven't been a success. Most tech journalists have been cautious and sympathetic with Intel's new consumer business, especially because graphics cards were scarce.
"At least one" large AIB has chosen to stop making Intel Arc graphics cards. Wallossek said this move is unrelated to the other concerns. We still haven't seen any products released from Asus, Gigabyte, or MSI, the main three AIBs. ASRock's Arc A380 product pages and China retail availability debuted yesterday.

1. is proably very close to the truth, aimed at miners.
But don't worry, I'm pretty positive in up to 30 days we'll hear which US senators and representatives have loaded up on Intel shares / calls.

I really hope that they aren't stopping ARC. We really need a third player in the space.

Intel will not abandon such large project that they invested billions in development.
They just need to fix the bugs and slowly grow up the business, it hard to start new business when you have huge established rivals, if it was back in the 90s these GPUs were out with the drivers as it is and they would fix them on the way.

INTEL needs to shine the Batman.......... ooops I mean the Jim Keller signal light from the INTEL corporate roof. Being serious though there is no reason for INTEL to fail again, they have so much money. All these years and still a disappointment.I just don't get it. All I can think of is 1.) They were aimed at miners since the drivers are a mess 2.) Raja tried to go all out which seems to be his track record. How can INTEL fail come on all the money and man power. Just wow.
Are they truly cursed?
