Intel also intends to partner with a number of groups to accomplish this, including Feminist Frequency and the International Game Developers Association.
The gaming press, in desperate need for a victory against #GamerGate and eager to push the narrative that #GamerGate is a movement against women and minorities in gaming, was quick to frame Intel’s announcement as a loss for #GamerGate.

But it sounds like this is the last gen of this layout and 15th gen will shake things up. Do I jump in and upgrade when this is out or wait another generation?
