L'information peut sembler surprenante, tant le déploiement de la première génération de cartes graphiques d'Intel semble quelque peu chaotique. Rappelons que les GPUs basés sur l'architecture Arc, en version desktop et laptop, sont quasiment aux abonnés absents, les annonces officielles n'ont pas vraiment eu lieu et les calendriers initiaux sont largement dépassés.
Mais dans un interview accordé à PC Gamer, Tom Peterson d'Intel évoque l'avenir, explique qu'une grande partie de l'équipe ASIC travaille actuellement sur l'architecture Battlemage et une partie plus restreinte sur l'architecture Celestial. Il souligne également le travail effectué par ses équipes, afin de permettre à la carte A380 d'offrir une prise en charge relativement "good" des jeux sous DX12 et Vulkan.
Techniquement, il est logique qu'Intel travaille sur ses futures architectures, la recherche et le développement, nécessaires à chaque nouvelle architecture, nécessitent des années.
We’re not going anywhere on our discrete business. And our discrete business is the basic technology development that goes both into the data center and integrated GPUs. I feel like there’s a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) out there. I’d just like to be clear: we’re not going anywhere.
The thing I happen to believe—Pat, and I, and Roger, and Lisa, and Ryan, everybody is aligned on the idea—that graphics is a critical technology to the client, is a critical technology to the data center, and we want to start competing in the mainstream area where our competitors are making a ton of money. So all three of those things are critically important for Intel. Most of our ASIC team is on Battlemage. A small portion of it is on our future, which is Celestial. And then there’s a very small portion on Alchemist today, but they’re kind of different function sets. So like a board and, what I’ll call, chip teams are on Alchemist right now. Kind of think of it as getting our board just right, getting our BIOS just right, making all the final tuning. But the bulk of our design team is on Battlemage.
Our plan is to start here. And then we add on top and then we add on top. And it’s not a really hard strategy to understand because we’re starting with the volume segment of the market, and then we’ll grow into more high-performance segments over time.
