Intel with its current graphics cards, it reached a maximum performance roughly at the level of the GeForce RTX 3060, i.e. the previous mainstream. In addition, efficiency is not a miracle. It should be much better in the next generation, when the performance of the flagship should move to the border of higher mainstream and lower high-end. Advice Battlemage it is on the chip BMG-G10 to bring 64 Xe cores, which means a total of 8192 ALU units, i.e. twice as much as today’s Arc A770 (ACM-G10). Much higher clocks are also expected. Thanks to production using the 4nm process at TSMC, the frequency should reach up to about 3 GHz, which could send the gross performance much higher. Let us remind you that the A770 has an official clock of 2.1 GHz, however, in games it usually uses significantly higher frequencies around 2.4 GHz. In light of these numbers, the gross performance could be about 2.5 times that of the A770.
It is no wonder that the performance is speculated to be somewhere on the level of the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. In order to turn it into real performances (and not just theoretical ones), it will be necessary to work on the drivers further, in any case, it really looks like solid hardware. There is talk of 48 MB of L2 cache and a 256-bit GDDR6 memory bus or possibly even GDDR6X. It is not yet clear what the memory capacity will be, mainly 16 GB is offered. Unofficially, there is talk that the 225W consumption should be maintained despite the more than 2x power. There is also mention of the BMG-G11 variant, which could be closer to 150 W. Other features include improved performance for ray-tracing or the latest DeepLink functions.
