Intel: Powerful GPUs Are Useless, You’d Better Upgrade Your CPU

Categories: GamePosts | no responses

Nvidia’s allegations that the CPU industry had no future seem to have upset Intel. World’s number one semiconductor manufacturer felt that it was about time to reply Nvidia in the same manner and released a PowerPoint slideshow claiming that powerful GPUs don’t bring any benefits to non-gaming computer users.

According to Intel, there is no use in spending more money on a next-generation graphics card if you don’t want to play the latest gaming titles. The company claimed that upgrading your CPU from a Core 2 Duo E6550 to a Core 2 Duo E8400 would bring a significant performance boost across all the computer applications users might run.
