A few weeks ago, we told you that Intel had announced the date for an event in which the new ARC graphics would be presented.
And so it was, as it turns out that the technological giant has presented its new dedicated graphics for portable devices. Intel’s new GPUs have a microarchitecture named Xe HPG (High Performance Graphics), integrating their new cores Xe and a sophisticated AI engine. Also, graphics support AV1 video encoding and decoding, support for HDR displays, and is compatible with Display Port 2.0 to 4K at 120 Hz.
Well, moving on to graphics, the family is called Intel ARC A Series and has different categories depending on the type of equipment to be used. If we go to the first category, this is the call Intel ARC 3, which is intended for ultrathin computers and light. In the same way, it allows you to play various popular titles in 1080p and up to 60 fps.
On the other hand, we find the second and third category with Intel ARC 5 and 7, respectively. Are deliver higher performance for content creators and of course, more power to play. dedicated graphics ARC 5 and 7 have more X coresea higher number of execution units and more GDDR6 memory.
All new Intel ARC GPUs are compatible with DirectX 12 Ultimate and hybrid Deep Link technology. The latter allows you to combine integrated and dedicated GPUs to further increase graphics performance.
Finally, the first GPU laptops Intel ARC 3 will arrive during the month of April. While computers with Intel ARC 5 and 7, will arrive next June.
And that’s not all, since GPUs will also be available for desktops. But we will see these only at the end of this year. It is only a matter of time to see if the GPUs will be at the level of AMD and Nvidia.
What do you think about the arrival of the new dedicated graphics of Intel?
