To start the year, the Intel Republic of Republic of India website has published modest details on Intel processors with Intel's showtime Radeon RX Vega Graphics. In the overclocked processor table, which accompanies Core i9 processors, Core i7-X in addition to eighth Generation K are listed Intel Core i7-8809G processors, quad centre processors with 2 graphical options listed.
The Core i7-8809G is non business office of what Intel officially announced inwards its press release, but on Intel's overclocking spider web page here, it is listed every bit a quad-core processor with hyperthreading, which supports basic frequency of 3.1 GHz, has 8 MB L3 cache, TDP 100W 'Target', in addition to supports 2 DDR4-2400 channels. Intel lists both graphics circuits: integrated graphics (iGPU, or IGP) every bit 'Intel hard disk Graphics 630', in addition to bundle graphics (pGPU) every bit 'Radeon RX Vega K GH Graphics'.
There are several things that demand to live on ruled out of this information.
It looks similar Kaby, non coffee
The fact that it's listed every bit a Core i7-8000 serial processor powerfulness brand the user holler upwards that this is the Coffee Lake processor, the close of late launched serial of mainstream processors that select the 8000 serial name. However, the Core i7 Coffee Lake based parts all select half-dozen cores, piece it has alone four, which volition propose it to live on Kaby Lake processor. Another arrow that leads to Kaby Lake is the fact that Intel Graphics is called 'HD Graphics 630', which is named every bit UHD Graphics with Coffee Lake. The tertiary arrow is retention support, which is upwards to DDR4-2400, compatible with Lake Kaby piece Coffee Lake supports DDR4-2666 on its Core i7. Then some other smash inwards this story is that for a long time, this department was unofficially labeled 'Kaby-G'.
Graphic Radeon RX Vega K GH: Vega Confirmed
The AMD graphics business office of this fleck is listed every bit Radeon RX Vega, which confirms that it uses the latest Vega architecture from AMD. It's called 'Vega K GH Graphics', which is pretty undefined at this point. The website does non specify how many units are counted inwards the GPU, in addition to then it's non clear whether 'GH' volition demonstrate how strong, or anything else.
Back when Intel announced that this production went to marketplace position (no details details), nosotros were told that the graphics volition select access to high bandwidth memory, HBM2, in addition to volition connect to AMD graphics using Intel's EMIB technology. Currently nosotros withal select no confirmation of how much HBM2 retention is inwards this product, although close media await it to live on 2GB or 4GB.
100W with CPU Core-H: Graphics in addition to HBM Have Most of That Budget
The Target 100W TDP packet is besides listed differently on other processors inwards the table, because with a combined disk-grade GPU combined, the ability window must live on properly managed. I suspect that when Intel genuinely launches this processor family, at that topographic point volition live on a give-and-take of how processor ability management volition run in addition to how to distribute it. This tabular array does non supply a turbo frequency, in addition to then it may withal live on determined at this fourth dimension coinciding with the ability budget.
Intel at its master launch stated that they are using a Core-H course of educational activity CPU for Intel products with Radeon Graphics, which agency the CPU part is only about 45W. This volition crusade 55W left behind for the graphics, which are at the RX 550 level: 8 CUs, 512 SPs, running at 1100 MHz. There is no betoken AMD has installed upwards to 10 CU Vega inwards its 15W processor, in addition to then with Intel i7-8809G products, Intel may select gone farther in addition to slower: judging from the size of silicon inwards the mockup, this could live on to a greater extent than 20-24 CU Design built inwards 55W-75W windows, depending on how the ability budget is played betwixt CPU in addition to GPU. We are waiting for to a greater extent than information, of course.
I volition add together that Core i7-8809G is listed inwards the tabular array with other desktop processors. There is no mobile processor inwards this table, which i tin flame await that the processor is aiming for the desktop / socket motherboard. It would live on really piece of cake for Intel to plough it on to a qualified Coffee Lake motherboard solution, every bit long every bit the combined packet size is appropriate (and the ability management of the Coffee Lake motherboard overcomes the Vega in addition to CPU graphics). Judging past times the renderer provided past times Intel, it does non human face that way, in addition to then it's possible that nosotros are seeing a novel motherboard / socket combination, or possibly it volition alone live on sold every bit an onboard CPU, similar to the Intel Atom processor. Assuming it was made available to construct a domicile altogether, that is.
Back when nosotros discovered that Intel was planning to alter the lower Xeon lower business advert to Xeon E, nosotros postulated that inwards the same leak, a grouping of processors with 'G' inwards the advert powerfulness live on related to a particular model with extra graphics, close probable supported with inexpensive Radeon AMD graphics. This listing for i7-8809G reinforces the illustration that 'G' focuses on the graphical side of the equation (does the Xeon due east department select Radeon graphics, nosotros create non know yet).
I imagine this listing volition come upwards downwards pretty quickly. The production page linked to this fleck rated 404. The annual CES demonstrate adjacent week, which volition live on the prime number fourth dimension for Intel to denote this novel product. We are inwards the procedure of contacting Intel for information.
'The novel product, which volition live on business office of our Intel Core 8 family, brings together our high functioning Intel Core H-series processors, Second Generation Memory Bandwidth (HBM2) in addition to third-party discrete graphics from custom-to-Intel chips from AMD's Radeon Technologies Group * - all inwards i bundle processor. '
'In unopen collaboration, nosotros designed a novel semi-custom graphics chip, which agency it's besides a peachy illustration of how nosotros tin flame compete in addition to run together, ultimately delivering proficient consumer innovation the ability sharing framework is new. connections made specifically past times Intel with processors, discrete graphics chips in addition to particular graphics memory. We select added software drivers in addition to unique interfaces to semi-custom discrete GPUs that coordinate information with the iii elements of this platform. '
