I do not care about games. I work on visualization. Which means I do not care about little performance differences and I do not tout for a specific card or the other. I'd like my stuff to work decently on whatever I encounter.
But I do care about general performance and driver quality, especially as a developer. I love the fact that i915 is always the first to get support for the latest kernel features, it's probably going to have the first usable vulcan driver, YET every time I find dozes of minor (and not so minor) regressions, to the point that I'm simply tired.
The catalyst drivers were _never_ an option on linux. When it comes to development I cannot afford the system to fail on me twenty times a day just because I'm playing around.
I miss the days of mach64. I hope AMD delivers.

Are there no automated unit tests for the Intel driver?
