![]() ![]() Contrary to recent speculation, Intel, it seems, is here to stay in the cutthroat graphics market. Representing the first generation of discrete graphics cards for mobile and desktop, an ambitious roadmap extends to subsequent generations known as Battlemage, Celestial and Druid, respectively.

This sentiment is never more true than with the desire to be the third player in the discrete PC graphics card market. ![]()
