At its CES 2020 keynote, Intel showed off its upcoming Xe discrete graphics chip and today, we’re seeing exactly how that’s going to be implemented. From a report: First off, Intel unveiled a standalone DG1 “software development vehicle” card that will allow developers to optimize apps for the new graphics system. It didn’t reveal any performance details for the card, but did show it running the Warframe game. It also noted that it’s now “sampling to ISVs (independent software vendors) worldwide… enabling developers to optimize for Xe.” As far as we know right now, Intel’s discrete graphics will be chips (not cards) installed together with the CPUs on a single package. However, it’s interesting to see Intel graphics in the form of a standalone PCIe card, even one that will never be sold to consumers.
