Next year Intel promises to release video cards ARC on microarchitecture Xᵉ HPG codenamed Alchemist, and judging by the characteristics, players can count on competitive hardware.
Intel’s flagship graphics chips will be able to compete with solutions GA104 from NVIDIA and Navi 22 from AMD. The first discrete graphics cards will go on sale in the first quarter of 2023 and will be based on TSMC’s 6nm process technology. Intel processors will have more texture units (TMU) and rasterization units (ROP), but will reduce the amount of resources used for ray tracing.
In addition, the Alchemist video card will receive a semblance of Nvidia’s tensor cores – modules called XMX. They will be used in games along with the previously mentioned XᵉSS technology, which is analogous to DLSS.
It is expected that the performance of Intel solutions will be up to 16 TF, which will allow Alchemist video cards to sit between the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti (21.7 TF) and the Radeon RX 6700 XT (12.4 TF).
