It seems that Intel's Kaby Lake G processors, with AMD RX Vega graphics in one package, are powerful enough to move any game to 1080p resolution and High or Ultra quality.

The arrival of the first processors that combine an Intel CPU and an AMD GPU, in the same package, represents a revolution in the industry, without a doubt. The idea of ​​this solution is twofold, the first, to develop an optimal processor for gaming, due to how bad the Intel iGPUs are, and on the other hand, to remove NVIDIA from the entry-level gaming market and laptops and also make these cheaper. systems. The results are the Kaby Lake G, a solution that aims to break it down.

During CES 2018 some more details have been given and the first samples of these processors already show what they are capable of. The first equipment to integrate the Kaby Lake G are the compact or miniPC equipment, NUC Hades Canyon from Intel, which will integrate these new processors.

According to Playware , who were able to test one of these systems with the Core i7 8809G processor, they are amazing. This processor has four cores and eight threads, with a base frequency of 3.1GHz and a boost clock speed of up to 4.2GHz. The graphics card, on the other hand, is the RX Vega M with 24 CUs, providing 1536 Stream Processors, 96 TMUs, and 64 ROPs, combined with 4GB of HBM2 memory, all integrated into a single package and connected via EMIB technology. As for the rest of the specifications, it includes 16GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1TB Samsung 960 Pro SSD.

The specifications allow playing at 1080p resolution without major problems, so much so, that it averages 52.59FPS in the Rise of the Tomb Raider in Ultra quality. The Assassin's Creed Origins at Ultra achieved 34FPS, the Rainbow Six Siege achieved an average of 96FPS and the PUBG has given 65FPS, in this case on a custom preset. Without a doubt, they will give a lot to talk about.
