Kind of off topic, but is intel actually going to release that stand alone GPU they are working on, or is it going to be one of those "learning" experiences they often do to see if they can do it?
As much effort they put into iGPU it would seem like a "easy" transition for them into that market. Even if they focused on midrange GPU cards vs highend.
We should see more information at CES and then around summertime next year. There are a few articles floating around with more recent information about their targeted performance for mobile applications, but the rest is basically all speculation.
Ignore anything related to Raja's Tesla license plate. Tech sites are somehow associating the date of his vehicle registration (the "June" tag) with a reveal date. I don't think people know how cars (or the DMV) work any more.
TDP was too high on these to make them appealing to begin with. The idea isn't a bad one though so maybe as Intel iterates and hopefully improves their iGPU, HBM can be used again to benefit performance on memory bandwidth starved integrated graphics.
The TDP was too high for laptops, but they seemed to have been perfect for 21.5" Retina iMacs which previously used Iris Pro equipped CPUs. Instead Apple surprisingly started giving 21.5" Retina iMacs discrete graphics. I wonder if there was some misunderstanding or disagreement between Intel and Apple on this?
I had a feeling this was planned from the start. Using AMD chip as a test for including graphics on the same EMiB and later replace with Intel Xe graphics.
From the looks of the information next XPS 15 2in1 is likely this Spring.
" I had a feeling this was planned from the start. Using AMD chip as a test for including graphics on the same EMiB and later replace with Intel Xe graphics. "
I believe if you search back, especially when Xe was announce that I did mention it. I know I mention possibility of NVidia in it - but that has yet to happen.
Actually this whole project was to groom and seduce Raja Koduri... " look, look at our well funded labs, our swathes of engineers, our bulging wallets, look into my eyes Koduri, forget everything that went before"
I wondering if it was the other way, Raja could have the idea in the first place and decided Intel was a better place to implemented and did not like directions where AMD Graphics was going.
It could be Raja like what he saw and wanted to be involved.

Think it's due next summer 🤞name99 - Tuesday, October 8, 2019 - link
aka one Intel Unit.As in "Fusion power is thirty Intel Units away" or "we should have flying cars in ten Intel Units".

It would mean splitting board designs for the same product, or abandoning offering a range of SKUs with different user-customisable GPU options.HStewart - Tuesday, October 8, 2019 - link
