For Intel Arc DG2 512 and 3070 Ti, respectively.

I just did the benchmark now for my RX 6700 XT OC-ed and I got 8597.56 score. Stock is about 7900-8000.

If this performance translates into gaming too, it's good news in that department. We shall see that when the trusted reviews come.

The biggest issue will not be performance, but availability and MSRP vs actual price in shops...

If it is legitimately in the ballpark somewhere between a 3060 ti and a 3080 then intel did their homework.
It won't matter if one can't find or buy one, though. That is almost guaranteed to be the case unless one pays scalper prices.

I think the biggest issue will be the DRIVER SUPPORT. Will intel know enough this early into their venture to work with dev houses\publishers to maximize driver performance and will they do this consistently like nVidia?
