Intel Finally Demonstrates Larrabee Graphics Card

The second Intel Developer Forum keynote just finished and Sean Maloney included a little update in it about Intel's latest discrete graphics card called Larrabee. This would make it the very first public showing of Larrabee, which is a big deal for enthusiasts and those who have been hearing about Larrabee for years.

I have mixed emotions about this. Intel has all the resources to make one heck of a card. However, I don't know what they'll do to the rest of the GPU market. Will they force innovation or stifle it with their products?

I'm really looking forward to seeing what Larrabee can do. I don't think it's going to kill competition in the marketplace but it does sounds like it's going to be pretty impressive. We really won't know until sites can start testing it in retail form.

I don't think Larrabee is close to market at all. They will have to beat AMDs APU which is scheduled for 2011. Nvidia is going to left out in the cold.
