Intel UHD Graphics Xe 16EUs (Tiger Lake-H) vs Intel UHD Graphics Xe G4 48EUs vs Intel UHD Graphics Xe 32EUs (Tiger Lake-H)

The Intel UHD Graphics Xe 750 (Rocket-Lake GPU with 16 EUs) is a integrated graphics card in the low end Tiger Lake-H CPUs. It is using the new Xe architecture (Gen12) and was announced in May 2021. This variant only uses 16 of the 32 EUs in the chip (=128 shaders) and therefore is significantly slower than the 32 EU version.

Compared to the previous generation of UHD Graphics ,the Xe architecture and the improved shader count lead to a big leap in graphics performance.

The Intel UHD Graphics Xe Graphics G4 (Tiger-Lake U GPU with 48 EUs) is a integrated graphics card in the low end Tiger-Lake U CPUs (15 Watt, e.g. Core i3 11th Gen). It is using the new Xe architecture (Gen12) and should be announced later in 2020.

The performance depends on the TDP settings of the laptop and the used cooling. First informations show that the chip can be configured at 15 and 28 Watt TDP default (as the Ice Lake-U chips) and the performance should be around a dedicated GeForce MX230 in 3DMark benchmarks. For gaming we are expecting a bit worse performance due to the missing dedicated graphics memory and driver support. Compared to the fastest Ice Lake iGPU (Iris Plus G7), the 48 EU version in an i3 should be slightly faster. Therefore, the iGPU is still only for lowest graphical settings and low resolutions in demanding games.

The Tiger Lake SoCs and therefore the integrated GPU are manufactured in the modern 10nm+ process (improved 10nm process) at Intel and therefore should offer a very good efficiency.

The Intel UHD Graphics Xe (Tiger-Lake-H GT1 GPU with 32 EUs) is a integrated graphics card in the high end Tiger-Lake-H CPUs. It is using the new Xe architecture (Gen12) and was announced in May 2021.

Compared to the previous generation of UHD Graphics ,the Xe architecture and the improved shader count lead to a big leap in graphics performance. Still, the UHD 750 is only suited for low demanding games or very low settings. The 48 EU version in Tiger Lake SoCs e.g. reached 46 fps in The Witcher 3 low 1024x768 and no fluent framerates in Mafia Definitive Edition.
