Intel announces A770 graphics card and more!

Intel is famous for its processors. However, the American manufacturer creates the surprise with graphics cards. Rumored for a few monthsThe Intel Arc is finally revealed. The chipset manufacturer is finally attacking the graphics card market against AMD and Nvidia.

Intel is proud to launch its own GPUs to take on a hyper-competitive industry, where the red and green team have been battling each other for decades. Goal : Beat Moore’s LawThat is, doubling the power every two years. We found very little information about the graphics card, except that it is 65% more powerful in Ray Tracing than competitors. You’re probably wondering what “competition” is, and so do we…

Maybe we should have started there, but the price? Presenting the conference on the GPU segment, Patrick B. Gelsinger, CEO of Intel that Games don’t have to be expensive. So you will understand that a graphics card from the blue manufacturer will be affordable. According to the president, its launch price will be only $329, or roughly the same price in euros. in comparison, This is a lower price than the RTX 3060. Performance You have to wait to receive it at the editorial office to tell you more. Scheduled to release on October 12th, it’s imminent!

Besides, there are also two other graphics cards. This is not for the general public, but for data centers. These are Flex Series 170 and Flex 140. GPUs are very powerful and should make it possible to build the most powerful supercomputer in the world. That’s the goal Intel has set itself with next-generation graphics cards.

Use iPhone on Windows as on Mac

Out of nowhere, Intel announces synchronization between Android smartphones and iPhone, with Windows PCs. that it Intel Unison app, Which allows you to manage calls, messages, transfer files and notifications from your smartphone directly from your PC. You no longer need a Mac to connect your iPhone directly.

Obviously, the most we expect is file transfer, such as Airdrop. An unexpected announcement as much as it is welcome. Currently, This functionality will reach PCs with 13th generation Intel Evo processors by 2023. Currently, the official partners are Acer, HP and Lenovo.

Here is a rollable tablet signed by Intel and Samsung

you read correctly, Intel and Samsung monitors teamed up to make a foldable touchscreen tablet. Once again: an unexpected announcement. In the “Intel Innovation” category, we find this tablet that evolves into a 17-inch screen. We can say it’s the chef’s surprise!

This tablet can also sync with a computer to make it a secondary screen. Your desk is then extended and everything is wireless. There is still a small wrinkle present, such as foldable devices. This hawk to enlarge the screen does not seem to solve this problem. Beyond that one wonders what is the durability of such a device. Unlike a regular foldable device, there is more than one joint that can get dirty. The entire screen is assembled, and then dirt is brought inside. Let’s see in practice what it gives.

There’s also another bonus, the icing on the cake! Intel has just partnered with Samsung and TMSC, two chip makers, to create custom processors. This means that in the same processor, we can find exact components from the three manufacturers, within the same product.

Overall, this conference had a lot of reach around developers and AI. We will especially remember the arrival of the new Intel 13000 processors, the stimulating graphics card for a long time, and this synchronization function. For the future, it will be necessary to see if the drop-down tablet is a concrete project or a simple prototype.
