![]() ![]() Nvidia only showed off two new mobile GPUs, but they’re good ones. These cards are a counter to Nvidia’s Max-Q offerings, focusing on performance per watt instead of raw performance. AMD brought eight new mobile GPU designs to CES, including the new RX 6000S cards. For the first half of the year, Nvidia and AMD are focused on mobile graphics. That’s it for desktop announcements right now. Nvidia also quietly launched a 12GB variant of the RTX 3080, which was absent from its CES keynote. AMD brought the $199 RX 6500 XT, and Nvidia showed off the $2 and RTX 3090 Ti. ![]() Nvidia recently launched a 12GB variant of the RTX 2060 Super, and at CES, Nvidia and AMD came with new desktop announcements.

XeSS looks disruptive enough, and as long as the cards perform like rumors suggest they will, we’ll have a third competitor in the ring. It’s been too long that the GPU market has been wrapped up in the AMD and Nvidia rivalry, so I’m looking forward to what Intel can do with Arc Alchemist. It functions similarly to Nvidia’s Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS), and Intel has announced that Hitman 3, The Riftbreaker, and Death Stranding: Director’s Cut will support the feature at launch. Intel has already shared some information about its XeSS upscaling feature that will be included with these graphics cards. The rumor mill says that the flagship card from the range will perform around the level of an RTX 3070, but I’m waiting until Intel shares more. For now, we know about a few laptops - such as the Alienware X17 - with an Arc GPU, but no other details besides that. Intel announced that Arc Alchemist is in over 50 desktops and laptops “coming soon” at CES, but the company didn’t provide details on what cards are in the range, when they’ll arrive, or how much they’ll cost. Rumors suggested Intel would launch the cards at CES, which is kind of true. ![]() Newegg’s AI PC Builder is a dumpster fire that I can’t look away from The surprising reason your powerful PC still can’t handle the latest games Here’s why you should buy an older GPU instead ![]()
