It came from a Reddit post which Videocardz picked up and then it spread everywhere. I don't doubt it given the evidence of that post. It could be Intel is accelerating their schedule because this is important. And they achieved some important milestones recently documented in https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/battlematrix-software-update-august2025.html where most of the enterprise serving stuff they want to do with vLLM is pretty much good enough to go. That being said, I don't think it's actually ready ready in comparison to CUDA systems but Intel really does not have time on their side so sooner is better especially given most of the recent troubles happened after what they said at Computex. It's still probably mostly going into Battlematrix systems unless Intel fumbled that which I doubt. The main issue will be that they are going to sacrifice goodwill with regular consumers and selling the B580s since I forsee at the prices they are selling them to be basically good enough to start a scramble on them. At the very least, anyone that was looking for a Turing RTX 8000 won't have to pay 2 grand for them any longer, I would suspect and a lot of GPUs in the >$500 to 2-3k range are going to be affected by Intel's pricing.
