Intel DG1 could be up to 40% more powerful than the Vega @ 7nm of the AMD Ryzen 7 4800U
During CES 2020 in Las Vegas, Intel unveiled the Xe DG1 graphics card for laptops. Alongside this card, a desktop version aimed at developers was also showcased. Now, the first benchmarks for the Intel Xe DG1 have leaked, revealing a graphics card that performs far better than expected.
Intel's new solution to be integrated into its upcoming processors easily outperforms an AMD Vega @ 7nm. We are talking specifically about a new generation Vega integrated into the Ryzen 4000 processors. Remember that despite the AMD name, these processors are based on Zen2 @ 7nm, like the Ryzen 3000.

This DG1 graphics solution will hit the market by the end of the year and is a brutal leap for the company in terms of graphics. The first tests that have been seen would be with the Tiger Lake @ 10nm processors, where they are integrated into the same CPU. We also see benchmarks of a discrete version alongside the Coffee Lake processors.
Tiger Lake will be the first processor family to implement Xe architecture graphics. The version that has been seen with the Coffee Lake could be a DG1 for development like the one shown at CES 2020. Raja Koduri's work since coming to Intel has been hectic and early data shows that it has been effective.
First we will see the benchmarks of these solutions in OpenCL and Geekbench 5. The iGPU of the Tiger Lake-U has 96 Execution Units with a working frequency of 1.5GHz, offering 12.444 points in OpenCL.
The solution that has been seen with a Coffee Lake processor would be a discrete desktop solution and not an iGPU. With the Core i5-6900K it offers 11.990 points and with the Core i9-9900L it offers 12.053 points. These processors have used a 1 Execution Unit DG96 clocked at 1.0GHz and 1.05GHz.
Vega succumbs to the DG1
Of course, the DG1 integrated in the Tiger Lake-U has been compared with the Vega 7 integrated in the Ryzen 4000. We recall again that the Ryzen 4000 for laptops are based on Zen2 @ 7nm like the Ryzen 3000. Returning to the topic, the Next-gen Intel iGPU is there with the Ryzen 4800U. The Tiger Lake-U version appears to be 18% less powerful than the Ryzen 7 4700U.
One of the tests also shows that the discrete DG1 could be up to 40% more powerful than the iGPU in the Ryzen 7 4800U. The Ryzen 7 4800U integrates a Vega @ 7nm with 8 Compute Units that are 512 Stream Processors. Each Compute Units of these new Vega is 59% more powerful than the Vega @ 14nm.
All these data in general seem fuzzy and many elements are intermingled. What we can make clear is that Intel Xe despite being quite green and there is little optimization for them, they promise a lot. We assume that as the integration of the different software improves, we will see substantial performance improvements.

This site never tires of selling us BETA products that are a thousand times better than AMD, that don't even hit the market, and are projected for 1 year and don't even end up coming out.
Hi. I only see comments from you throwing shit into posts where the data indicates that Intel's solution is better than AMD's, no matter what is stated or said. Which makes me think of two things: you have little or no hardware knowledge and are just looking to get attention.
Well, this is the last time I have come down to your level. If you insist on this pathetic hater temper attitude, you will end up not being able to comment on anything else. And it is not censorship, it is that your crying and tantrums tire.
I do not throw anything, I speak of reality. And it would not be the first time that you delete comments and censorship people. Before they commented more until you started eliminating and blocking anyone who criticized Intel. Do you still continue with that censorship practice?
That the DG1 is 40% faster than an iGPU is promising too much? They still have quite a long way to go to start offering a competitive product. The ridiculous thing is that the iGPU of the 4800U did not pass by the stone, but you put them as a merit. Besides giving credibility to Geekbench (I know there are more benchmarks in the article) is being very blind, it only serves to filter specs, to measure or compare performance is a fraud.
