Here is everything we know about Intels upcoming Alchemist gaming GPUs, including their rumoured delay.

Lets focus on Alchemist, then.

It will also support DirectX 12 Ultimate.

We also dont have a definitive list of technical specifications for these cards.

After this announcement was made however, Intel plucked that early 2022 release window from its Arc website.

This move sparked rumours that the cards may be delayed, but more on that later.

Why would you want these cards?

Right now, you might be asking yourself: Why should I even care about Intel Arc Alchemist?

The answer depends on whether or not youd like to game with the best performance possible.

After all, competition is generally good for consumers.

It often leads to innovation and more competitive pricing in the long run of any industry.

If that ends up being the case, you could potentially get top-tier gaming performance at a lower cost.

Intel has a lot riding on this.

Have the cards actually been delayed?
