I've always been a fan of AMD, but I must admit, Intel is making some impressive strides in the Machine Learning field, especially with tools like OpenVINO. The process of converting models to ONNX and running them in an accelerated manner on Intel GPUs has become significantly easier compared to using ROCm.

If Intel continues on this trajectory, it wouldn't be a shocker to see them leapfrog AMD and give NVIDIA a run for their money.

In the last year we made a 180 from growth at all costs to profit at all costs. Would be crazy if the market just valued consistent sustainable growth but im sure some economist would tell me this is stupid

I wish they'd let me buy an Arc A310.

Does it have to be A310? There are a couple models of A380 available at Newegg at similar prices to what the A310 was supposedly selling for in other regions.

what does openvino run on that is accessible to normal developers? amd has GPU cards for me to use and mi250 mi300 for data centers Nvidia has more of those.

I'd like to have hardware to play with oneapi,openvino,but do not know where the hardware is

Any Intel Arc GPU will run it, as far as I know. I bought an A750 for myself to experiment with Level Zero/SPIR-V and SYCL.

thanks,will buy one

here is the hw requirement for oneapi

and my 12 years old core-i7 seems still can play with OneAPI, installing it right now.

Does the A750 work? Ive had a couple of attempts to get their GitHub projects running on an integrated chip without any success

It'll use the built in GPUs on any newer intel CPU. Otherwise, Arc.

For SYCL and DPC++ to give a NVIDIA a run for their money, they need to also at very least be Fortran and Python friendly (let alone all the other languages that target PTX), have a good graphical GPU debugger like Nsight and Visual Profiler, and tons of helper libraries for compute.

Honestly when I see the extremely high power consumption of Nvidia cards, I feel there are some inefficiencies and consequently an opportunity for Intel.

It remains to be seen if Intel can deliver reasonably affordable GPUs with enough hardware efficiency gains while not being too far behind Nvidia on the software tooling front.

But they have a card to play here.
