The Future of Intel Chipsets: A New Era of Performance and Efficiency

Intel has been making significant strides in recent years, with a renewed focus on integrated graphics that have long been a staple of their product lineup. However, with the launch of the new Xe Max dedicated GPU, it's clear that Intel is also pushing the boundaries of what's possible in terms of performance and efficiency.

The Xe Max GPU is a second dedicated GPU with its own 4GB of memory and 128-bit memory bus, which provides a significant boost in terms of performance compared to the regular integrated Xe GPU. But what's really exciting about this new GPU is its ability to work in tandem with Intel's CPU to deliver even better results. This is made possible by Intel's Deep Link Technology, which allows the CPU and GPU to dynamically share tasks and improve overall system performance.

The Xe Max GPU is also notable for its ability to handle demanding tasks like video editing and 4K rendering without breaking a sweat. In fact, I was able to edit my 4K 10-bit footage in DaVinci Resolve using this laptop's integrated graphics, which up until now had been a challenge even with more powerful laptops.

But Intel isn't stopping there. They've also launched the Evo certification program, which sets a new standard for what consumers can expect from their laptops. To earn this certification, laptops must meet certain criteria, including running on an Intel 11th Gen CPU and Xe graphics, having over nine hours of battery life with FHD resolution, and supporting features like Wi-Fi 6 and Thunderbolt 4.

The Evo certification program is a significant development for the laptop market, and it's clear that Intel is committed to making sure that their devices meet the highest standards. With the launch of this new certification, laptops will be held to a higher standard, which should lead to improved performance, efficiency, and overall user experience.

What does all of this mean for the future of Intel chipsets? It's clear that Intel is on the move, with a renewed focus on innovation and competition. The Xe Max GPU is just one example of their efforts to push the boundaries of what's possible in terms of performance and efficiency. With the launch of the Evo certification program, Intel is also setting a new standard for laptops, which should lead to improved devices that meet the needs of consumers.

As we look to the future, it's clear that Intel is going to be playing a major role in shaping the laptop market. With their Xe Max GPU and Evo certification program, they're giving themselves and other manufacturers a new benchmark to aim for. We can't wait to see what Intel has in store for us next.

One thing is for sure, with all of this, it's clear that Intel is kind of having a fire lit under them right now and they're trying to push it and it's because of that that this ultra light portable laptop that I mentioned already is able to edit my 4k 10-bit footage in davinci resolve which up until this point i actually haven’t been able to do on a laptop with integrated graphics speaking of if you’re not familiar there are integrated gpus and those share the space on the soc with the cpu and then there are dedicated sometimes called discrete gpus that have their own memory and usually their own power supply now normally intel has really only focused on integrated gpus but now for the first time in over a decade they’ve made a discreet one called xe max now this is a second dedicated gpu with its own four gigs of memory and laptops with the xe max branding of which at the time i’m making this video there’s only really three right now now there are a lot of people hoping that this was a dedicated gaming gpu but as it turns out it’s still in that xclp family and that gaming gpu that everybody’s waiting for is going to be in that hpg family eventually.

now instead of being used for gaming it like the integrated xe gpu is more for ultra portable productivity laptops but it does have a couple of tricks firstly it’s found in laptops with xe integrated gpus but it doesn’t replace it instead it works in tandem with it also has a dedicated four gigs of lp ddr 4x memory has a wide 128 bit memory bus which you can think of as having like wider traffic lanes for accessing the memory which helps speed things up we have up to 16 more eu’s for a total of 96 always for the xe max versus between 80 to 96 eu's in the regular integrated xe and a slightly higher clock speed the clever thing it can do though because it's being used in conjunction with that eye gpu and also the cpu is what intel calls deep link technology now this is a technology that allows it to dynamically share tasks across the two gpus and the cpu in certain circumstances which is actually pretty clever.

so the other thing that we need to talk about that intel just launched recently as well is their evo certification now you might have seen this badge before on a bunch of new laptops coming out but it’s not just for show. The Evo certification program is a real standard that sets a new benchmark for what consumers can expect from their laptops. To earn this certification, laptops must meet certain criteria, including running on an Intel 11th Gen CPU and Xe graphics, having over nine hours of battery life with FHD resolution, and supporting features like Wi-Fi 6 and Thunderbolt 4.

The Evo certification program is a significant development for the laptop market, and it's clear that Intel is committed to making sure that their devices meet the highest standards. With the launch of this new certification, laptops will be held to a higher standard, which should lead to improved performance, efficiency, and overall user experience.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enoh we need to talk intel recently launched a lineup of gpus called the intel xe gpu and i have to admit after using a few of these laptops in past videos i was pleasantly surprised that even the integrated graphics in these was able to edit my videos now because of that fact i went down a rabbit hole of research not even reached out to intel who offered to help me make this video i needed to know what was so special about these intel xe gpus and furthermore if they were in some way intel's answer to the new apple m1 chipsets we'll get to that a bit later for now in this decoder episode my explainer series here on the channel let's talk about what intel xe and evo which you might also have heard of are and why they're important for intel okay so there's more than one variety of the intel xe we have four subfamilies actually um and they're micro architectures of the new xe architecture we have xclp which is their low powered and their integrated gpus these are what you and i'm mostly familiar with and are found in laptops like the razer book 13 the dell xps 13 the msi prestige 14 and a bunch of others then we have xchp which is their high performance line but it's aimed at data centers mostly after that we have xe hpc which is their high performance computing line which we'll basically see in super computers and that's probably it and lastly we have xe hpg or high performance gaming and this is the one that everyone is kind of waiting to see to come out that has been rumored and even leaked a bit and seems squarely aimed at nvidia and amd's popular gaming gpus all of these are based on the same new technically 12th gen gpu architecture but each has been subtly adjusted to meet the needs of its specific market xe lp being the only one currently available for consumers to purchase and again the only one that you've probably seen okay now for some of the improvements over the last gen of gpus from intel the new xelp architecture has 50 more eu's which are execution units and for performance the more the better a new transistor stack to drive frequencies about 30 percent higher and it also makes it more scalable which is how we're probably going to see them using this as the basis for all their other gpus that they're working on plus there are other changes to the layout of the sub slices which are different sections of the chipset different eu layouts which we already talked about etc bottom line though we end up with an 80 to 90 percent almost double graphics performance improvement over their last integrated gpu which by the way was almost twice as powerful as the generation before that i think we can all agree that intel kind of has a fire lit under them right now and they're they're trying to push it and it's because of that that this ultra light portable laptop that i mentioned already is able to edit my 4k 10-bit footage in davinci resolve which up until this point i actually haven't been able to do on a laptop with integrated graphics speaking of if you're not familiar there are integrated gpus and those share the space on the soc with the cpu and then there are dedicated sometimes called discrete gpus that have their own memory and usually their own power supply now normally intel has really only focused on integrated gpus but now for the first time in over a decade they've made a discreet one called xe max now this is a second dedicated gpu with its own four gigs of memory and laptops with the xe max branding of which at the time i'm making this video there's only really three right now now there are a lot of people hoping that this was a dedicated gaming gpu but as it turns out it's still in that xclp family and that gaming gpu that everybody's waiting for is going to be in that hpg family eventually now instead of being used for gaming it like the integrated xe gpu is more for ultra portable productivity laptops but it does have a couple of tricks firstly it's found in laptops with xe integrated gpus but it doesn't replace it instead it works in tandem with it it also has a dedicated four gigs of lp ddr 4x memory has a wide 128 bit memory bus which you can think of as having like wider traffic lanes for accessing the memory which helps speed things up we have up to 16 more eu's for a total of 96 always for the xe max versus between 80 to 96 eu's in the regular integrated xe and a slightly higher clock speed the clever thing it can do though because it's being used in conjunction with that eye gpu and also the cpu is what intel calls deep link technology now this is a technology that allows it to dynamically share tasks across the two gpus and the cpu in certain circumstances which is actually pretty clever so the other thing that we need to talk about that intel just launched recently as well is their evo certification now you might have seen this badge before on a bunch of new laptops coming out but weren't sure what it actually meant well in order for a laptop to have this on it it has to get sent to intel and then they have to confirm that first it's running an intel 11th gen cpu plus intel xe graphics it has more than nine hours of battery life with fhd resolution the bezels around the display are super thin the computer can instantly wake from sleep in under a second it supports fast charging so it'll be able to get four hours of usage in under 30 minutes of charging and finally it needs to have wi-fi six which is the latest version of wi-fi that's just a lot more efficient and thunderbolt 4 which is cool because it allows you to transfer data super quickly from thunderbolt storage but also allows you to do things like plug in this external gpu housing to it and use the external desktop gpu of your choice to further improve the graphics power of the laptop as if it was built in if you want to learn more about intel evo devices check out the link in the description below okay so what does all of this mean for the future of intel chipsets well a while back i talked about apple's m1 chipset and the fact that it's able to do what it's able to do because it is so optimized apple owns the cpu the gpu the os and they're even the oem the manufacturer of the laptop well with intel using this new more scalable architecture as well as the more powerful gpus that are hopefully coming out with hpg running on computers that already run their cpus they can optimize the battery and the performance a lot more and then the fact that they have the evo certification means that they can also make sure that the oems are doing their part as well honestly i feel like it's going to be pretty interesting especially when those new hpg more powerful gpus come out to see what intel is capable of doing with them also this of course means more competition in this space and that's always good for us the consumers there you guys hope you enjoyed that uh let me know if you thought this video in the comments below always appreciate hearing from you guys if you like this video please thumbs up it or share it it's greatly appreciated also check the rest of the channel if you like what you see there please
