Great, more hints that ~$200 budget GPU performance from 4-5 years ago will be new again for about the same price.

Feels like we're entering a slump period when it comes to performance
And downright regression when it comes to pricing

Well if a 580 level of performance while not very exciting for the same price as it was 5 years ago, isn't great, bit id admit it will be enough for me.

while all above are correct, no one seems to point out that there is still a gap between MOBILE gpu (this intels new one) and desktop.

As such, I don't see this as absolutely horrible development, if nothing else, it means that intel could become 3rd somewhat serious mobile GPU competitor.

Edit: Of course there are RX 580 Mobile and desktop cards with same name so... which was meant? then again, laptop is just odd 15% slower than desktop.
I would still count this as good option for discrete laptop GPU alternative, unless you need a serious gaming/CAD use laptop.
