News Intel heralds XeSS passing the 150 games milestone, but only two titles support XeSS 2.0

For some context, FSR 2.0 supports 216 games according to AMD's website, and the FSR 3 page lists 76.

Nvidia's numbers are a bit harder to parse, but they claim "Over 700 games and applications feature RTX support", which covers DLSS, RT, DLAA, and Frame Gen. They do say over 160 games support frame gen, which would be a lower bound for DLSS 3.x, and I'm seeing marketing claims that 75 games will support DLSS 4 when the 50-series launches.
 
Question is, will Intel stick to developing GPUs?

I don't think they will, I hope I am wrong as AMD has never been able to catch up to Nvidia, but here is hoping!

Sounds like AMD will need to roughly double the number of games on FSR 3 (AFAIK 3.1 is needed to use FSR 4) to catch up to Intel on AI upscaled games if RDNA 4 is capable.

Really is Nvidia>Intel>AMD in this regard.
 
Waiting on XeSS2 really. The reported results on F1 and Marvel Rivals look phenomenal. Got a free copy of Assassins Shadows with the B580, so will know how XeSS2 does once the game releases. Wondering how laborious it is to implement three different applications now in game development. Seems unsustainable.
 
All signs are pointing to a possible release of Celestial in 2025. Seems they are skipping big Battlemage silicon. Now that 2025 release date is likely for integrated GPUs with maybe a 2026 release for discrete, but it just depends how they want to spend their fab time really.

Essentially they are saying Celestial hardware is done, and Druid is in the works already design wise.
 
They certainly aren't staying on the shelves anywhere. In the US B&H claims to have the Acer B580 in stock right now for only a little over MSRP. Two B570 models at MSRP in stock at Newegg and B&H.

If I were in the market for a mid-range card right now, certainly wouldn't mind it. But I have my HTPC A380 and even a GTX1080 running in my old system. B770 / C770 is what I want to give a try. Going to be keeping an eye on these higher CPU requirements though.
