Intel asks users’ opinions on the development of graphics cards

For some time now, Intel has been in full swing with the development of its graphics cards, which will be named Xe. Intel is targeting both integrated circuits and data centers and ordinary consumers, which means that they will be direct competitors to both AMD and Nvidia.

Very little is still known about the investment, but via Twitter, Intel is now presenting what they call the Odyssey, which is described as an important part of the work. According to the company, this is a community initiative where users can sign up to receive the latest news about Intel’s graphics investment, but also participate and provide feedback during the work.

This is more than a journey. It is an Odyssey to improve visual computing experiences. But we can’t do it alone. We invite our community to join us. https://t.co/aj1vaq79vr #JoinTheOdyssey pic.twitter.com/s0uQcChWJ6

Users who sign up for Odyssey can fill in such things as names and emails, and also choose the event venue. These are a number of cities spread across Europe, North America and Asia, and the list includes Stockholm. There are many indications that the company is planning one or more events worldwide and it is already known that Intel will talk about its graphics investment in GDC 2019.

The details around Xe are still obscured, but it is likely that the architecture Arctic Sound is the basis for it. Intel has also confirmed that the first generation will be manufactured on a 10-nanometer technology and that they aim for a launch by 2020.
