Its been a while, but Gamers Nexus had this short rant on how they treat people with their warranties - denied replacements that the other companies would have done, for reference. I think LTT did some shit about them too. Just a safer bet that if MSI/Gigabyte etc., one of the big guys, is within a few dollars, then you should opt for them. Otherwise, its not that big of a difference in the clock speed.

Intel Arc A380 discrete GPU reviews: "it's like living in the middle of a minefield" - VideoCardz.com
Intel Arc A380 is crippled with software issues Intel Arc A380 reviews leave a stain on company’s reputation. Intel Arc A380, Source: ComputerBase & Igor’sLAB Western tech media is disappointed with how Intel introduced the Arc Alchemist GPUs. Not only was the new discrete architecture delayed...

They should have saw it coming. The ATI drivers issues complaint have continued on through the AMD acquisition founded/unfounded. I thought Intel would know better since they've been working hard to get into the market. Once you get a rep, it's very hard to shake especially in the discrete arena.

Even when it was just "rumored" that they were going going to have a GPU arm - everyone here knew it was going to have driver/software issues. We cant be alone in that thought process. Its going to tarnish the name long enough for them to get their shit together. As one of the early adopters, those people should almost expect it.

It was a joke really. A lot of us here said it would suck. We were hoping it would be good, for competition and price drops, but we all (except Mist) doubted it would be.

Everyone knew there was going to be massive driver issues, even the people that have been doing this for decades struggle with it. They had to realize this as well, and if they weren’t willing to take a loss for the first 5 or so years then they shouldn’t have even bothered. It will take multiple generations for them to even have something that is remotely usable for the average person

Rumor has it that most of the engineering side at Intel is well aware of the problems and challenges, like the performance and the long-term nature of the project. Intel poached lead talent from AMD in the GPU sector, like Raja Koduri and Rohit Verma. It's the marketing side at Intel that totally dropped the ball on this.
The marketing team at Intel for consumers probably never really had that pressure to duke it out in a highly competitive market with a product that wasn't leading in its market. A bit like Blizzard marketing in the MMO segment.

Intel has stated that they plan to price their GPUs based off of their bottom performing games. They have optimized DX12/Vulkan games as top tier, unoptimized DX12/Vulkan as middle tier, and DX9-11 as bottom tier. In a few years between driver improvements, ReBar enabled being the default, and DX9-11 optimization becoming less relevant (from more GPU power and from DX12/Vulkan being the norm), the driver issues will be largely irrelevant. The also have the oportunity to do some nice integration between Intel CPUs and dGPUS, especially on mobile, like the AMD advantage stuff and leverage CPU encoders.

Raja Koduri is responsible for the failing AMD Fury and Vega GPUs. No idea why Intel decided to poach that loser Koduri
