Intel Xe-HPG GPUs could offer up to 960 UE


The upcoming Intel Xe-HPG GPUs could have a variant with up to 960 execution units (UE), as suggested by a source from Twitter.

The source comes from Twitter, which has asked to delete his name for security reasons. The information was collected by Videocardz, so it may have some credibility. However, the following information should be viewed with caution.

Intel would be evaluating the possibility of launching a GPU with 960 execution units, to aim for much higher performance than what we have seen so far. We know that Intel plans the DG2 graphics series to have variants of 128, 384 and 512 execution units, but Intel wants to go a little further.

At the moment, we do not know if Intel uses a separate matrix for each GPU, or if it uses a single matrix for all models and cuts the UEs for each occasion.

With 960 execution units and 7680 FP32 ALUs (cores), this GPU should be aimed at demanding video games, although it is impossible to calculate if it will be able to compete with the high-end graphics cards from Nvidia and AMD.

Upcoming Intel Xe-HPG GPUs would focus on GDDR6 memory technology, leaving GDDR6X memories exclusively for NVIDIA Ampere. The memory bus would be 192 bits with a capacity of 6 GB.

Intel Xe-HPG is currently scheduled for a release in the second quarter of this year and will not be manufactured in by Intel, but will use a third-party manufacturer with a process node that has not been confirmed yet. We will keep you informed.
