I see a big mix of positive and negative in the comments, I’m gonna take a slightly different tact, and say I’m extremely bullish on the GPU market in the near-to-mid term on the consumer side. Obviously, a coming recession and relaxing of sales due to pandemic/lockdown pull ahead will probably dampen sales, but having 3 vendors taking 3 separate approaches to their designs is great for competition and consumer choice. We have Nvidia at the high end with monolithic chips probably delivering the highest performance in most/all areas, especially gaming. AMD is going with a chiplet architecture that should allow them to stay in the same ballpark of (non-raytracing) performance at a lower price. And finally we have Intel coming in at the low end with cards that seem like (once all the driver issues are sorted out) are going to be adequate for gaming, maybe even offer best in class price/performance in certain cases, and that seem to be also targeting productivity as well. They were the first out of the gate with AV1 hardware support, as well what looks like some relatively impressive matrix math units, similar to Nvidias tensor cores.

Overall looking very promising for the next 5-10 years, and Im hoping any potential recession doesn’t cause Intel or AMD to take their foot off the pedal, or in the worst case (more likely for Intel), even scrap the product lines.
