Intel will stop working with AMD and will not integrate the Radeon Vega anymore

Officially Intel and AMD will stop collaborating on Kaby Lake-G processors, and will stop supplying Radeon Vega graphics by AMD.

The partnership between Intel and AMD that began in 2018 has ended . Last year, Intel collaborated with AMD to integrate its GPUs into its processors. There has been much talk about the Intel Kaby Lake-G processors, which integrate Radeon Vega graphics. They haven't been widely seen and have only been integrated into a handful of NUC systems.

After a year of working together, relatively, it has been announced that the agreement is numbered. Intel and AMD will start pears on January 31, 2020, which will be the last day that orders for these processors will be accepted. The reason the two companies split is more than clear: AMD competes directly with the Core in processors, and the company's new iGPUs promise a lot.

Intel and AMD will stop working together soon

AMD has lost interest in working with Intel following the arrival of the Zen architecture processors. The company's APUs are a powerful and affordable solution. In 2020 we should start to see the first APUs based on RDNA, which will be a significant performance leap.

On the other hand, Intel is immersed in the development of its own graphics cards. We have recently seen the first benchmarks of a Gen11 based on the Xe architecture. We also know that the Gen12 will be released at the end of next year, if all goes well. Gen11 solutions should match AMD's solutions, predictably.

In addition, Intel lately has not stopped attacking AMD and that is not liking anything in its competitor. It should be noted that in recent years those who have left AMD and gone to their competitor have not been few. Raja Kodur or Jim Keller are just two examples of this, the engineers who have changed sides.
