If even half of Intel's claims are true, this could be a big shake up in the midrange market that has been entirely abandoned by both Nvidia and AMD.

More like back in the day when you would see vendors slapping 1GB on a card like the Radeon 9500, when the 9800 came with 128MB.

Ah yeah those were the good old days when vendors were free to do that, before AMD/Nvidia restricted them. It wasn't even that long ago, I remember some AMD 7970s being double VRAM.

And, again, I'd like to point out how insane this restriction is for AMD given their market struggles...
