Intel has revealed new information regarding their next-generation Xe GPUs which are expected to make a debut next year on desktop and mobility platforms. The Xe GPU architecture which is internally referred to as Gen 12 would be Intel’s first GPU lineup to make an entry as a discrete graphics solution.

During the Intel Developer Conference ‘IDC’ 2019 in Tokyo, Intel released some new benchmarks of their Gen 11 ‘Iris Plus’ GPUs featured on 10th Gen Ice Lake mobility processors versus the older UHD 620 graphics chips. While featuring a much-needed performance uplift over their older Gen 9.5 GPUs, the Gen 11 GPU when tested in some popular eSports titles still didn’t hit the sweet-spot 1080p 60 FPS mark.
