Intel arc Memes

The GPU market is basically a tragicomedy at this point. First panel: "NVIDIA is anti-customer" - yet we keep throwing money at them for those sweet, sweet frame rates. Second panel: "AMD is anti-customer" - but hey, at least they're slightly cheaper while they gouge us! Third panel: "Intel Arc is our only hope!!" - that moment of desperate optimism when you're willing to believe a newcomer will save us all. Fourth panel: Reality check - market share shows NVIDIA at 94%, AMD at 6%, Intel at 0%. The invisible hand of the market is giving us all the middle finger while we complain on Reddit and still buy the next overpriced GPU anyway.

Ah, the eternal GPU dilemma! On one path, NVIDIA offers beastly performance that might just burn down your house and require a second mortgage for your electricity bill. On the other path, AMD gives you "support" for older cards that basically translates to "yeah, it'll technically run... at 4 FPS." Meanwhile, gamers stand paralyzed at the crossroads, praying Intel Arc somehow becomes the messiah of reasonable pricing and performance that was prophesied. It's like choosing between setting your wallet on fire or settling for graphics from 2010.
