AIB for low entry + OEM only...
I wasn't expecting a RTX 3090 or 6900XT killer of course but i feel it is not too good for Intel's start on GPU segment...

We now have RGB in the gpu segment as well.Damn.

Entry level, in other words - it just sucks.. and we want make at least some money on it..

I think this is the correct approach, rather than release a full discrete desktop card that is bound to fail. At least this gives them time to sort out their drivers (Cyberpunk 2077 has only just started working after latest driver) and get some products out there.
It'll be interesting to see what they can do when they ramp-up the specs in the future. I'm already intrigued by the performance of small laptop/handhelds like the GPD Win 3, which in all honesty isn't too far from what I'd like in a handheld Win10 machine.

This was supposed to be their cutting edge product and compatitor to AMD/NV?
A GPU that is barely faster than the PS4 from 10y ago?

When we will see intels gpus?

If they pull GTX 1060 performance it will be miracle of the decade .
GTX 1060 at 70$?? 😀 ,that would change a game.

Looks when you buy your GTX 1060 off wish and get a GTS 450.

Well entry level has the majority of the sales ... On the other hand almost in every case in this category of the market integrated graphics are just fine .

Intel need to hurry up, there's a market starving for GPUs and the first one to offer supply wins. 640 shaders for an entry level "I need a picture to display" card is expected, but I hope they enter the mid range market this year... and not pull a monumental hyper-douchebag move like putting 10GB on a card while charging for 30GB.
XenthorX
That's exactly what i expected : Starting with the segment with the highest volume, totally understandable.

BLEH!
How good or bad do we think this is going to be? Will it be overpriced like most intel products?

For those who believe than entry level is good start, well wait to TDP, if it would be quite high as i expect around 50-75W, it means that is just forced to be entry level, because it sucks.. and i will not scale up great with more power. I now that now even mid range cards are 200W, but its i guess just thing of present generation and normal would be again 120-160W.. and some if performace of these multiple 2,3 or wouldnt be comparable.. they just sucks.
Well, there was not Cyberpunk capable driver at launch, even week, or two after than.. it means, that Intel knows that it sucks and even not invest into drivers..
Lets call it educated guess, Intel planned something much better and now they are in damage control mode..

Look at this is fail and they are tried to lock it down by need some special MB features not use it and it is even unstable when its own outputs are used:
