Current MMO are not DX12 e,g FINAL FANTASY XIV Online, Lost Ark and Black Desert Online are DX11

But for Pew pew it need to win in Valorant , Apex Legends and their Bundles MW2

trying the Intel Xess feature test from 3Dmark and it seems in future Intel will need this upscaling technology in game to sell better their GPU in budget segment, average 15fps~30fps gain from 1080p to 4k using default Ultra Quality set, yet

I don't know xess will be selling point or not, there's dlss and fsr already. I think resizable bar will be more likely? Heard there's huge performance leap with the ARC cards.

Assuming all 3 GPU makers have equal market share, I think game developers will prefer DLSS the least. FSR is great because it should work on consoles and also cross GPU agnostic. XeSS will be second because it is GPU agnostic. However given that Nvidia have a sizeable market share in the dGPU space, the battle will be between FSR 2.0 and XeSS to see which is easiest to integrate and offers the best results.

when buying a gpu, don't buy the cheaper alternative because you want to save money
for all you know after installing and testing, you get 20 fps at low settings then end up have to fork out another lump sum to get a gpu that works in the games you play

The problem with the Intel GPUs is.....the need for Rebar/SAM support, this rules out upgraders with older systems who want a budget card for a good gaming experience. Honestly, these peeps are better off looking at, say, an RX 6600 for better performance.

I'd have liked to include the RTX 3060, but it's still too ex for what it brings to the table, besides, it costs more than the RX 6600 though they're about even in performance.

bad performance for DirectX 11 games is a killer already. Since alot of game still stuck in DX11. Even if have DX12 mode also alot of bug

Several reviews mentioned the Intel card has a "soft-touch" matte surface. Will probably degrade into a disgusting sticky mess in a few years given SG's hot and humid climate.

Will Intel Arc A380 be available

Intending to get a rabak build, and if it's performing okay, can throw in a ~$100ish card. Don't think Quadro T400 will reach our shores either. And the cheapest budget card i can find the RX 6400 for $232 really don't seem worth

t400 has always been available locally. can get local set w 3y warranty off lazada (vii pc) for 250.

still cheaper than what u can get an a380 for, on taobao they are over 250 with shipping and cc fees. anyway, the 6400 performs more consistently and doesnt require external power or rebar to be usable.

Oh that's interesting
Looking now, the 4 local vendor selling $250+ish too overpriced, even more than the RX 6400 from PC themes
And the two unknown with shop name (ae7lUqbI, b1UB6uI3) selling $100+ too sus
