Intel Introduces New High-Performance Graphics Brand Intel Arc. The new graphics brand will cover hardware, software and services. The first silicon will appear in products in the first quarter of 2022, in both mobile and desktop form factors.
Intel has revealed the brand for its upcoming consumer high-performance graphics products: Intel Arc. The Arc brand will cover hardware, software and services and will span multiple hardware generations, with the first generation, based on the X HPG micro-architecture, code-named Alchemist (formerly known as DG2). Intel also revealed the code names of future generations under the Intel Arc brand viz., Battlemage, Celestial and Druid.
“Today marks a key moment in the graphics journey we started just a few years ago. The launch of the Intel Arc brand and the reveal of future hardware generations signifies Intel’s deep and continued commitment to gamers and creators everywhere. We have teams doing incredible work to ensure we deliver first-class and frictionless experiences when these products are available early next year," said Roger Chandler, Intel VP & GM, Client Graphics Products and Solutions.
Intel X is a scalable graphics and compute architecture designed to deliver exceptional performance and functionality spanning integrated to discrete and data centers to supercomputers.
Upcoming Intel Arc graphics products are based on the XHPG micro-architecture, a convergence of Intel’s XLP, HP and HPC micro-architectures, that will deliver scalability and compute efficiency with advanced graphics features. Alchemist, the first generation of Intel Arc products, will feature hardware-based ray tracing and artificial intelligence-driven super sampling, and offer full support for DirectX 12 Ultimate.
Intel’s long-term vision is to bring frictionless gaming and content creation experiences to gamers and creators worldwide, giving them innovation and choice in hardware coupled with open and accessible software tools.
Alchemist products will arrive in the first quarter of 2022.
