I know Intel is dipping its toe into the GPU market, but let’s be real, AMD and nVidia are the only options and have been for the last 20+ years. The manufacturers/assemblers of the complete graphics cards are varied and widespread, but the core tech comes from two companies only.
Why is this the case? Or am I mistaken and am just brainwashed by marketing, and there are in fact other viable options for GPUs?
Cheers!
Huawei have just started selling a gpu to the public that they made a few years back. It has a lot of VRAM, but it is old slow RAM, and doesn’t have the software infrastructure (drivers etc) nvidia has. So currently it isn’t a great option, but if you look at phones, or electric cars, there is every chance they become competitive in a relatively short time period. Time will tell.
