It looks like, if one can afford it, the R9700 is worth the extra money.

I read that Intel is getting out of the dGPU space, but then again, their iGPUs are really getting good. I can't understand why they'd give up the space when the AI market is so insane.

Rumors of their exit from dGPU predate Battlemage. So I wouldn't put a ton of credence to them. But Intel's is quite talented at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

I hope not. They’ve been flip flopping too much and the market needs more dGPU competition.

The team working on drivers is doing a good job playing catch up and I hope intel will continue to invest in cards that focus on graphics workloads and not just on AI inference.

Exiting dGPU for gaming, but staying in the LLM world.
