nsane.forums Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Intel told Ars today that its long-delayed Larrabee discrete graphics product has suffered yet another delay, so the company has had to "reset" its overall GPU strategy and reposition plans and its expectations for the first version of the Larrabee product. Specifically, Larrabee v1 is so delayed that, at the time it eventually launches, it just won't be competitive as a discrete graphics part, so Intel plans to wring some value out of it by putting it out as a test-bed for doing multicore graphics and supercomputing development. Intel will eventually put out a GPU, but may not be the one we've been calling "Larrabee" for the past few years.View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeetPirate Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I think they are really just holding back some aces until AMD steps up their game with their fusion architecture. Availability of the AMD fusion is too low to be competitive right now. If Intel released that system at this time it would be like one player waiting by a chess board for an opponent to come sit at the other end.
