The Intel Graphics Twitter account was on fireplace at the moment, as a result of they posted an replace on the event of the Xe graphics processor, mentioning that samples are prepared and packed up in fairly an attention-grabbing bundle. The processor in query was found to be a Xe-HP GPU variant with an estimated die dimension of 3700 mm², which suggests we certain are speaking a few multi-chip bundle right here. How we concluded that it’s the Xe-HP GPU, is by phrases of Raja Koduri, senior vice chairman, chief architect, basic supervisor for Architecture, Graphics, and Software at Intel. He made a tweet, which was later deleted, that claims this processor is a “baap of all”, that means “big daddy of them all” when translated from Hindi.
Mr. Koduri beforehand tweeted a photograph of the Intel Graphics staff at India, which has been engaged on the identical “baap of all” GPU, which suggests it is a Xe-HP chip. It appears that this isn’t the model of the GPU made for HPC workloads (that is reserved for the Xe-HPC GPU), this mannequin might be a direct competitor to gives like NVIDIA Quadro or AMD Radeon Pro. We cannot wait to be taught extra about Intel’s Xe GPUs, so keep tuned.
Update May 2: modified “father” to “big daddy”, as that is the higher translation for “baap”.
