It is, but performance/value remains to be seen, which brings me back to my point that even the Intel juggernaut faces un uphill battle in this space vs Nvidia and AMD. Granted, during the current shortage, basically any GPU will sell regardless of performance/value proposition which makes it very easy for Intel to enter the market right now, however, 2-3 years ago, when Nvidia and AMD GPUs were affordable and available everywhere, nobody would have ever considered buying Intel discrete GPUs as even their integrated ones were not well received.
