Here’s an in-depth look at the future of Intel’s GPU technology, the next generation of Intel graphics cards.
Intel is planning to launch its next generation of GPUs, called the Arc Xe2 “Battlemage”. Having already entered the GPU market with the Arc “Alchemist” series, new information suggests that “Battlemage” is poised to take an important step forward in this technology.
Brief description:
- Release Year: Planned Starting in 2024 (discrete graphics solution)
- Intel’s first support Frame-generation technologyExtraSS
- Probably based on a 4nm manufacturing process From TSMC
- probably Doubling the death penalty unit 1024 from the EU
- Top model comparable to Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 (as previously rumored)
- Better value for money than the competition
According to current information, Arc Xe2, aka Battlemage, will be used both by consumers and professionals. Intel’s current roadmap, presented at a recent launch event in Japan, clearly shows its intentions Discrete GPU Series 2024 to reveal
In addition to already established products such as the A770 and A580, the upcoming GPUs are set to set new standards It is expected to feature, among other things, Intel’s first frame generation technology, Extras, will support. Unlike DLSS 3 and FSR 3, ExtraSS uses a combination of spatial super-sampling and frame extrapolation, enabling more efficient real-time rendering performance.
Interestingly, the reports also point to several technological innovations that Intel considered while developing the “Battlemaze” series. This includes correcting some architectural decisions that were considered suboptimal in the “Alchemist” series.
Early lab tests of BMG-G10 GPUs (Xe2-HPG) in August indicated that Intel’s Stick to a schedule Could – The current generation was significantly late. Since the Meteor Lake processor with integrated Arc Alchemist graphics unit has only been introduced, Battlemage is likely to be released only 2025 Along with Lunar Lake For integrated GPUs To be used.
Top model equivalent to RTX 4080 at $449?
Another aspect that attracts attention is the price-performance ratio of the “Battlemaze” GPU. According to previous rumours,… The performance of the new top model is comparable to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 But at a much lower price. Clearly Intel is targeting one List price of $449. This will strengthen Intel’s position in the highly competitive GPU market and could force competitors in the high-end segment to lower prices.
Although the official confirmation of this information is still pending Always treat initial rumors with caution It is becoming clear that Intel is taking important steps towards a strong market position and technological leadership in the GPU segment with the “Battlemaze” series. The coming months will likely bring more insightful information, especially before CES 2024, where Intel may provide more insight into its GPU strategy.
