Intel DG2 is the upcoming graphics processor that is supposedly based on Xe-HPG architecture. Last year Intel announced that its gaming-oriented discrete Xe-HPG series will be introduced in 2021. The manufacturer has not confirmed the exact date, nor did we learn any official specifications of the new graphics cards. However, it seems that it is only a matter of time before we see DG2 in action, as Intel recently provided an update claiming that the GPU has taped out.

...the plot thickens ! May be Intel's progress with Xe-HPG is why rumours of NVidia's AD102 Lovelace (18432 cuda cores) surfaced last week, unless that is actually 'Hopper'... who knows.

 

One thing is for sure...I was thinking about an upgrade to RTX 3090s or 6900XTs, but since their availability has been atrocious here anyway and now we are already talking next gens, I might as well hang back a bit to figure out what Team Green, Team Red AND Team Blue will unleash in 2021...
