Intel Xe graphics for gamers could arrive in 2021 with ray tracing and GDDR6 memory

Intel Xe graphics card for gamers is coming in 2021 with ray tracing support and GDDR6 memory, it's rumored. This comes from Videocardz, which claims that the Intel Xe-HPG graphics card will target avid mid-range gamers and will come with hardware-accelerated ray tracing (which Intel has previously talked about for high-end, heavy-duty GPUs). but not consumer products). The Xe-HPG range will also run on GDDR6 video memory, according to sources operated by Videocardz, to make it a more cost-effective product (compared to the use of HBM memory to be used with heavyweight Xe cards, namely Xe-HP. Models). The report claims that Intel is currently testing these Xe-HPG products in its labs and plans to ship the finished products in 2021, as mentioned. As we've already heard about the GPU grapevine, the plan is to make these graphics cards using a third-party foundry (in other words, Intel won't be making the GPUs themselves).

Xe wallet

Beneath the Xe-HPG enthusiast graphics cards will be the entry-level Xe-LP family of GPUs, which will include integrated Tiger Lake graphics, the DG1 discrete card (for laptops), and an SG1 offering that will ostensibly be a dedicated server graphics card. And in addition to the Xe-HPG we have the aforementioned Xe-HP heavy data center products, which will run up to 2.048 threads (UE) and 42,3 TFlops, according to rumors. At the top are the Xe-HPC or High Performance Computing (Exascale) offerings. What's interesting about the timing of this leak is that it comes on the day it was previously announced that Intel may give more details about Xe Graphics. This speculation was based on a tweet from the chip giant that has now been deleted, but it seemed to promise a significant reveal, which could indicate that we might hear something official about Intel's Xe graphics card aimed at gaming in the very near future ( maybe, maybe, even later today).
