Windows 10: New 8th Gen Intel Core Processors with Radeon RX Vega M Graphics

Brink · Jan 7, 2018

Today, Intel is launching a first-of-its kind processor: the 8th Gen Intel® Core™ processor with Radeon™ RX Vega M Graphics. Packed with features and performance crafted for gamers, content creators and fans of virtual and mixed reality, it expands Intel’s portfolio thanks to its optimization for small form factors like 2 in 1s, thin and light notebooks, and mini PCs.

Among the devices launching with this processor: new thin and lightweight 2 in 1s from Dell* and HP* as well as the most powerful NUC Intel has ever introduced. The new 8th Gen Intel Core processor will come in two configurations:

8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon™ RX Vega M GL Graphics (65W total package power)

8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon™ RX Vega M GH Graphics (100W total package power), which features an unlocked configuration

Setting the Stage for Continued Innovation

Intel first shared initial details about this new addition to the 8th Gen Intel Core processor family in early November. It brings together the Intel quad-core CPU, Radeon RX™ Vega M graphics and 4GB of dedicated HBM2 using Intel’s Embedded Multi-Die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) technology. EMIB acts as 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.

With this space savings, OEMs have more freedom and flexibility to create innovative thin and light devices. For example, many 3-year-old systems weigh nearly 7 pounds, last a mere four hours and are more than 32 mm thick. With this new processor, enthusiast devices are slimmed to under 17 mm and can run up to eight hours1,5,6 on a single charge, while still delivering next-level performance. This, combined with the new real-time power sharing framework and software drivers, is a prime example of hardware and software innovations intersecting to create new possibilities.

A Processor for Gamers, Content Creators and Other Enthusiasts

The new 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon™ RX Vega M graphics delivers a top-of-the-line experience to gamers and VR enthusiasts. This includes up to three times2,5,6 the frames per second on thinner, lighter and smaller devices compared with similar systems from three years ago and up to 40 percent3,5,6 compared with current discrete graphics. Now, gamers can play the latest titles like “Vermintide* 2” in high resolution on the go or in their living room with smooth motion and vivid colors, all as part of a truly immersive gaming experience.

Content creators can also do more with this new processor, whether it’s creating 3D images from scratch, editing videos seamlessly at home or on the go, or using the most popular creative applications. Compared with a 3-year-old PC with discrete graphics, content creation with Adobe Premier Pro* is 42 percent faster.4,5,6 Imagine the combined flexibility and performance enabled with this new processor for content creators in the growing 2 in 1 form factors for PCs.

With the performance and graphics capability to run everything from Windows* Mixed Reality headsets to Oculus*, consumers have the options of which reality fits them best – whether they want to watch live sports and movies, explore famous landmarks or play VR games – all on a PC that is sleek, thin and smaller than they expect.

8th Gen Momentum Continues

In addition to the Intel NUC and new Dell and HP devices, this new 8th Gen Intel Core processor will enable a gaming cloud solution brought on by Artesyn* and Gamestream*. But this is only the start of what’s coming with the 8th Gen Intel Core product portfolio this year. Expect to see more from Intel on the high-end performance notebook segment, the Intel Core H-series, Intel® Optane™ memory coming to 8th Gen Intel Core mobile devices for the first time and more details on 8th Gen Intel® Core™ vPro™ platform for businesses.

A variety of new 8th Gen Intel Core devices will be on display at Intel’s CES booth, #100048 in Central Hall South at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

That's one of the strangest press releases I've ever read. AMD is not even mentioned once.

[Critical Bug] Intel + NVIDIA Laptop Freeze Problem

I had the issue on a Dell Inspiron 15 Gaming 7577 that now I sold!

Next purchase will be an XPS. Does anybody know if

- Bug is present also on 8th gen cpu (i7-8750H or i9-8950HK, both with Intel HD 630 + NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050/1050 Ti) ?

- Bug is present also on Kaby Lake G architecture (i7-8705G + Radeon RX Vega M GL) ?

I would prefer the first option, but if the bug is related with any cpu in combination with GTX, I will switch to AMD

Thank you

Why mention AMD when you can get away with it by just mentioning their graphics brand name instead*Cool
