RIP Arc and Gaudi. There is no other way how to read this. Fewer competitors => higher prices.

I think it is bad news for the GPU market (AMD has had a beachhead with their integrated solution here as they've lost out elsewhere) but good for x86 which I've worried would be greatly diminished as Intel became less competitive.

Absolutely. This is terrible news for high emission gamers, who have been living under the boot of Nvidia for decades.
