Intel has been behind discrete GPUs for decades, even when they thought Larrabee would be a better alternative.

While they might score on Linux land by open sourcing their drivers, long time ago their OpenGL drivers weren't that great either.

They only entered the discrete GPU market a couple of years ago to be fair.

Fortunely I am old enough to remember what a couple of years ago means, like 1998.

So the last time they released a non integrated GPU prior to 2022 was back in 1998? That seems hardly relevant..
