Intel Graphics tweeted a advertising and marketing splash display of its upcoming Xe HPG gaming discrete graphics structure. There’s not a lot to the video, besides asserting the Xe HPG brand. It begins off with an outline of the Xe LP structure, on which the corporate’s Gen12 iGPUs and Iris Xe MAX entry-level discrete GPUs are based mostly; and swells into a bigger silicon that grows in all instructions. The animation may very well be a touch that Xe HPG chips shall be an order of magnitude quicker than the Iris Xe MAX, goal critical gaming, and take the combat to each NVIDIA and AMD.
Intel is designing the Xe HPG graphics structure for third-party silicon fabrication nodes, similar to TSMC and Samsung, and will leverage a sub-10 nm node to considerably scale up from the Xe LP. A current report pointed to the probability of 512 execution items on a sure Xe HPG variant (4,096 unified shaders) and modern GDDR6 reminiscence, whereas Intel has the required IP to tug off DirectX 12 Ultimate brand readiness, together with raytracing. Intel is probably going eyeing a slice of the e-sports {hardware} phase, though a high-end GPU can’t be utterly dominated out. Watch the video from the supply hyperlink beneath.
