And that, says Intel, can speed up content creation workloads as much as 7 times. That means both GPUs (the new dGPU and the CPU’s iGPU) can work together on inferencing and rendering. Intel claims the new dGPU delivers Additive AI. Intel has paired the iRIS Xe Max dGPU with its new 11th-Gen Intel Core mobile processors. Table 1: Intel’s 2020 discrete mobile GPU Variable Rate Shading, Adaptive Sync, Async Compute Intel DLBoost: DP4A * see section ‘what do we think?’ below The basic specifications of the 2020 mobile dGPU are in the following table. Intel has now announced their thin and light notebook discrete (dGPU), the iRIS Xe Max, on Halloween, and it may have been scary news for some of the incumbents. It has been careful to communicate its confidence while keeping a tight grip on its messaging. Intel has plotted the development and introduction of its X e dGPU line. They never seemed to address building a dGPU with the same seriousness and resources as the CPU.

The company has taken several runs building a discrete graphics chip to take on the market leader but has had a challenging time. Intel has a long history in PC graphics chips and in late 2020 announced a new discrete GPU (dGPU), the X e Max. Intel tried five times since 1983, and once more in 2020 Famous graphics chips: Intel’s GPU history
