Photo of the Huge Xe Graphics Processor Shared

It has been known that Intel has been working on the Intel Xe graphics processor for a long time. Although it is still unclear when the new GPU will be introduced, the chief architect of the US-based semiconductor manufacturer Raja Koduri, on October 3, 2019 IntelA sign indicating that will be seen in June 2020 he tweeted.

Koduri also shared an image of a huge, mysterious chip on his personal Twitter account about two months ago. We still don't know exactly what this chip that arouses great curiosity is, but Koduri continues his mysterious tweets without slowing down.

Visiting the Xe GPU Laboratory in California, Intel's chief architect shared the images of three GPUs of different sizes with his followers. Of course, we still don't have much information about these chips, but we have plenty of material to speculate. 

These products are intended for use in data centers. HPC products It is estimated that it will happen. Essentially, previous rumors Gen 12 graphics architecture that will endure Intel Xe graphics unitsIt was thought that there would be two options to be offered to data centers and standard users, but Intel designed its new GPUs to appeal to a wider area, which controls the graphics processor market. AMD And Nvidia It will definitely increase competitiveness. 

Koduri, BFP or Big Fabulous Package It uses new and interesting terminology to describe the large sizes of graphics units called graphics units. Just like SpaceX's CEO Elon Musk did with his giant rocket Big Falcon Rocket (BFR), which he later changed its name to Starship.

First system to use Xe HPC GPUs, produced by the US and expected to be the world's most powerful supercomputer Aurora will be. full per second 1 quintillion transactions machine capable of making in 2021 will be operational.
