I haven’t been a huge fan of Intel for their cpus for some time now, but I agree, there needs to be more gpu competition out there. I’ve been wanting to try out an Arc for a while, I’m just hoping the dgpu drivers are better than what they run for their integrated chips.

Well, the important thing is that the cables aren’t impeding the flow of air around the parts that get hot. It doesn’t look like they are, so I don’t see a problem.
