Intels integrated GPUs have pretty good "legacy D3D" support though (much better than their legacy GL support anyway)... it's not like they are newcomers when it comes to graphics driver development. Also D3D11 support will be relevant at least for the next 10 years
- navjack27 4y agoI forget where but in one YouTube video at least where they were being interviewed they explained that they thought this too. They thought that their integrated graphics legacy would be able to be essentially transferred over to making desktop cards but it sadly wasn't the case. The things that they did for the drivers for the integrated chips and the way that they designed the integrated chips were not transferable knowledge. So they did have to start mostly from the ground floor to work on the Arc gpus.
