Michael, any signs of Intel sending you an Alchemist GPU your way? There are not many (if any) Linux benchmarks on Alchemist out there. I think of buying one myself, just for the "adventure".

EDIT: Didn't see the image subtitle "I'll have Arc Graphics A380 Linux information and benchmarks beginning to flow out tomorrow."

I guess Intel is pretty lax about their embargos?

What embargo?

What embargo?

Many companies don't let reviewers release any info (except maybe photos and stats) until a certain date, which is usually the release date of the product.

Right, I am well aware and routinely engage in embargoes, but I am not under any embargo concerning the A380. The A380 cards are beginning to appear in the US retail space.

Ah I wasn't aware that was already happening. I only knew of them showing up in China's market. Nevermind then hah.

I read on another online service that Newegg has an ASRock-branded version of the Intel A380.

Newegg has a listing says "Shipped & Sold by Newegg", but now showing "Out Of Stock". So it was probably not overseas marketplace stuff from Asia.

This card does not interest me, but these links were "active" when I posted this message.

Crazy.
Even Intel GPUs are made of unobtanium.
