Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 36780, member: 636"] Intel moves forward with its Celestial graphics cards despite rumors saying they were canceled. A leaked timeline shows these Xe3 chips reached pre-silicon testing, meaning their core design is complete. The company finished work on ray tracing units, matrix engines, and Xe cores before moving to this stage. Cloud tools let computer makers test the chips without having physical samples. Partners can check how their systems work with the new hardware through online simulation platforms. The next step after testing will be making actual chips, a process that should start soon based on the timeline. Intel plans to build these chips using its Xe3P design at its factories. Job listings hint that these cards might use the newest GDDR7 memory type. The company stays quiet about Celestial products but never says it stopped making them. [/QUOTE]
