Intel and AMD have unveiled two configurations of the 8th generation Intel Core processors, with the AMD Radeon graphic.

Intel and AMD, two companies that have been at each other’s throats for decades now, decided to announce a partnership last November for a new powerful chip that will be found in gaming and professional PCs in the near future. The fruits of that partnership are now here, for a first glimpse//not clear. Intel and AMD have unveiled two configurations of the 8th generation Intel Core processors, with the AMD Radeon graphics.
The first configuration is the 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M GL Graphics (65W total package power), while the second configuration features an 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M GH Graphics (100W total package power) and has an unlocked configuration. Intel initially plans to make these available with the Core i5 and Core i7 processors
Intel and AMD are combining the former’s fastest CPU, with AMD’s fastest Radeon RX Vega M graphics and 4GB of dedicated high bandwidth memory using Intel’s Embedded Multi-Die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) technology. The new chip is up to 40% thinner than current chips with discrete graphics.
The Intel 8th Gen Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M graphics will have enough performance to meet the minimum performance requirements for the Oculus Rift and Microsoft Mixed Reality virtual reality (VR) headsets.

We also saw the launch of Intel’s Next Unit of Computing (NUC), formerly code-named Hades Canyon, packing in the new processor and graphics solution in a form factor that is incredibly compact.
Intel and AMD suggest that systems running this chip will be available from Spring 2018, with HP and Dell already working on new devices too. It will be interesting to see how these compete with the high-end graphics solutions offered by Nvidia, for gaming as well as professional devices.
Chipmaker Intel has launched its new 8th Gen Intel Core processors with Radeon RX Vega M graphics aimed at the enthusiasts community, which is growing exponentially with gaming, content creation and virtual as well as mixed reality. Optimised for small form factors like 2-in-1s, thin and light notebooks, and mini PCs, this first-of-its-kind processor could trigger a spate of really small and lightweight gaming laptops.
The new CPU brings in some hardware benefits and uses less space and power. The CPU brings together the Intel quad-core CPU, Radeon RX Vega M graphics and 4GB of dedicated HBM2 using Intel’s new Embedded Multi-Die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) technology. EMIB acts like a high-speed intelligent information bridge between the GPU and HBM2 and “reduces the usual silicon footprint to less than half that of discrete components implemented separately”, a press note said.  The dynamic power sharing enables enthusiast level performance in sleeker models. This saves up to 17.5W of power and brings in 18 per cent more efficiency, says John Webb, Intet’s director of client graphics marketing.
Intel says the CPU can achieve up to three times the frames per second on thinner, lighter and smaller devices “compared with similar systems from three years ago and up to 40 per cent compared with current discrete graphics”. This means titles like Vermintide 2 can now be played in high-resolution on the go. On the GPU side, Intel has acquired a custom built Vega M graphic with up to 24 compute units, Radeon display engines with support for up to six displays and 4K resolution. Also, this will enable remote deployment of cloud gaming platforms based on the new Vega on TVs etc.3

With these new processors, OEMs will be able to bring down sizes of gaming laptops substantially. OEMs will be able to achieve up to 4.3 pounds in weight and 9.3 hour battery life. “Leading OEMs include Dell, HP and the Intel NUC are bringing product to market utilising this new processor. This processor is the first of its kind bringing the CPU, GPU and HBM2 together on a single package. We targeted select customers and innovative designs to showcase the high-level of optimisations and ensure success with this first product. Expect additional customer designs to follow,” John Webb told indianexpress.com during a pre-launch briefing.
Initially, there will be five SKUs — four aimed at consumers and one with vPro. The high-end SKU will be limited to i7 core processor and will offer up 4.2GHz speeds. The 8th Gen Intel Core processors with Radeon RX Vega M graphics was first announced in November 2017.
