So now that we know where Intel is actually coming from, let’s actually take a closer look at the new Command Center.

Now with so many ex-AMD staff working at Intel right now they’re trying to avoid past mistakes, like how Radeon GPUs were known for amazing hardware that were always held back by poor drivers and software. What they’re trying to do right now is get their drivers and the control panel to their best possible state and use that as a solid foundation to build a larger GPU business.

Then near the end of 2020, Intel has also committed to launch a series of discrete GPUs that are set to compete directly against the Radeon and GeForce lineups.

You see Intel’s Gen11 graphics core with 64 execution units (compared to a max of 48 EUs right now) is just around the corner and it promises to provide a huge performance boost for integrated GPUs. Historically, Intel’s integrated GPUs haven’t provided enough performance to play most current AAA games, but that’s going to change a bit in the near future. However, they did fly us down to San Francisco for their event, and we just wanted to quickly cover the evolution of a key piece of software that could affect the millions of people who use Intel’s integrated graphics on a day-to-day basis. Now I know that some of you might be rolling your eyes right now since this article is dedicated to just explaining a small piece of software, and I also do want to bring up the fact that this article is not sponsored by Intel. This isn’t a final product either and all Intel wants at this point is actually feedback from their users. If you choose to download it, Command Center will be installed alongside your existing Intel graphics control panels, so there’s no messing with drivers and it can easily be uninstalled. Intel has made this new Command Center available to download on the Microsoft store for now, provided that you have a 6th generation or newer Intel Core processor. One of the first things that will use this new community feedback in the Intel driver program, or more specifically in the new Intel Command Center utility. Now they hope that this new feedback loop will lead to better software and obviously hardware that people will actually want to buy. Basically Odyssey is set up to engage the community in order to better understand what people are looking for in their future products, particularly on the hardware side. Lately I’m sure some of you have been following Intel’s social media posts about their new Odyssey program.
