There have been plenty of rumours surrounding the level of performance Intel is targeting with its upcoming Arc ‘Alchemist' discrete graphics cards. A recently leaked slide from Intel may have some answers, as it compares the upcoming GPUs against the competition from Nvidia and AMD. The slide first appeared on …

We've been waiting a long time for Intel to unveil its plans for high-performance discrete graphics cards. Now, the puzzle is finally starting to come together with the announcing of Intel Arc - which will be the brand for Intel's flagship graphics cards and associated software/services. 

The Geekbench 5 database has received a new entry for an Intel Xe graphics card with 128 Execution Units (EU). Considering the number of EUs detected, it's hard to believe that this is an iGPU based on the Xe-Graphics architecture, leading us to conclude that this is the entry-level Xe-HPG …

Intel has been working on its DG2 graphics cards for years now, with plans to launch in late 2021. It could take a bit longer for these graphics cards to be revealed though, with reports this week claiming that Intel is scheduling its DG2 launch to take place during CES …

Intel has been teasing its Xe-HPG GPU architecture for a long time and now, it looks like the official launch could be happening soon as DG2 sample cards are now heading to board partners.  Raja Koduri has been teasing the upcoming Intel gaming GPUs for quite a while, but now …

New details on Intel's upcoming DG2 graphics cards have surfaced on the Geekbench database. Two upcoming Xe-HPG versions were found, one with 256 EUs paired with an Intel Alder Lake CPU and a 96 EU GPU with another Alder Lake 14-core processor.  It's not clearly stated that these are the …

We've known that Intel is planning a number of ‘DG2' GPU SKUs, but recently, a brand new one popped up, featuring 448 Execution Units, a notch below the flagship model, which will have 512 Execution Units. This newly discovered SKU will reportedly offer similar performance to the RTX 3070 and …

Raja Koduri is back at it again, teasing the upcoming flagship Intel Xe-HPG graphics card. This week, the SVP of Intel Architecture, Graphics, and Software at Intel came to Twitter to share a photo of the Xe-HPG GPU with 512 EUs and stated that Intel is already looking into AMD …

The job …

Pictures of an engineering sample of Intel's Xe-HPG with 512 EUs have emerged, alongside some of the GPU's expected specifications. In terms of rumoured performance, the leaker behind these images has said that the Xe-HPG with 512 EUs "should be treated like an RTX 3070 Ti"...

Intel is slowly beginning to confirm its discrete GPU plans for this year. We've been anticipating Intel Xe DG2 for quite some time and now, we have a much better idea of what to expect, thanks to new specification listings, promising up to 512 Execution Units (EUs). 

Ever since Intel hired Raja Koduri and announced plans to create new discrete graphics cards, we've been waiting to see what Intel can do in the gaming segment. So far, we've seen the Xe graphics architecture introduced in low-power DG1 discrete graphics cards, which are primarily sold to OEMs. Later this month, however, we may get our first look at Intel's first high-performance gaming GPU. 

A new leak detailing some specifications of the Intel Xe-HPG (DG2) graphics card line-up has surfaced. As per the leak, the Intel Xe-HPG series will feature 6 models, starting with a 96 EU GPU with 4GB of GDDR6 memory, up to a 512 EU GPU with 16GB of GDDR6 memory. This …

New reports about the Intel Xe dedicated graphics solutions show that a Xe-HPG graphics card with 960 EUs is being evaluated and that the DG2 graphics card might come with up to 8GB of GDDR6 memory. As per MebiuW, the Intel DG2 is expected to come with 128, 384, and 512 …
