But can it run Crysis? I'm guessing not.

It's a dud.

Intel GPUs ... the Packard Bell of graphic cards.

Even Broadcom's Videocore 4 for $20 android phones can compete with this.

To call this a kludged up hack is being charitable. I can't think of a single redeeming feature this thing has. Low power almost qualifies but the price for that is too high to justify in my opinion. I would rather have an IGP than a machine that uses this.

But can it run Crysis? I'm guessing not.

I've seen benchmark of a Tiger Lake laptop getting 70+ FPS in Crysis. With more memory bandwidth, the discrete part should do better. Decent enough performance for a card at the absolute bottom tier. Once Intel co-promotional bucks are taken into consideration, it might cost an OEM ten bucks.

all that noise about intel GPU those last years. for this.
where are all the people on this forum advocating intel as the new competitor of NVidia and AMD ?

they only want the bottom of the market, wich they already have with their iGPUs.

The DG1's performance should be right in the alley of Nvidia's GeForce GT 1030

You mean it has the performance of a Ryzen 5 3400G? Now that's "exciting"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Xe

The Xe GPU family consists of a series of architectures, ranging from integrated/low power (Xe-LP),[2] to enthusiast/high performance gaming (Xe-HPG), datacenter/high performance (Xe-HP) and high performance computing (Xe-HPC).[3][4]

These are DG1=LP and at that they are OEM parts that might be weaker than consumer parts.
Wait for a full range of (at least consumer) products before judging.

Intel is just a laughing stock! LOL
