Compete with Intel Gen 11th and AMD 7nm, Intel wins for integrated graphics chip performance for the first time

AMD’s 7nm Ryzen 4000 chips are making the laptop processor market more exciting than ever. Not long after AMD’s Ryzen 4000 series of laptops hit the market, earlier this month Intel also introduced their new series of Tiger Lake Gen 11 ^th chips – claiming they are the best processors for laptops. thin and light.

Built on 10nm technology similar to Gen 10 ^th , but Intel said, Tiger Lake Gen 11 ^{th series} uses new SuperFin design, delivering faster speed and low energy consumption. than its predecessor. Not only that, it also integrates a new weapon from Intel, the integrated graphics processor Xe, with twice the performance compared to the previous generation.

Intel Reference Device for Core i7-1185G7

But while laptops equipped with these new chips are not yet on the market, The Verge reporter Monica Chin has experienced the power of the new processor line on Intel’s sample laptop, equipped with powerful chips. Gen 11 ^th in line, Core i7-1185G7. This is a 4-core, 8-thread processor, 3.0 GHz base clock, capable of single-core turbo boost up to 4.8 GHz or turbo boost all cores to up to 4.3 GHz with graphics chip. Car Graphics.

With a slew of advancements in technology, Intel’s line of 11 ^th Gen processors clearly beat its Ice Lake Gen 10 ^th line easily. But The Verge decided to compare Intel’s most powerful laptop chip today with its rival, the Ryzen 7 4800U chip with the Vega 8 APU (AMD integrated graphics chip) on the Lenovo Ideapad Slim 7, the transmitter Get the best out of the power of this chip.

Lenovo Ideapad Slim 7, the device that best promotes the performance of the Ryzen 7 4800U.

The test results are really impressive. The remarkable power of Xe Gen12 graphics chip on Core i7-1185G7 has helped Intel surpass AMD in terms of integrated graphics chip performance for the first time.

More specifically, Intel-powered devices can play Overwatch at 1080p with Ultra (89fps average) and Epic (59fps average). Meanwhile, its rival, the R7-4800U can only hit 46fps in Ultra mode.

The same goes for several other titles like Final Fantansy XV, XIV and World of Tanks, as the Intel Core i7-1185G7 all have higher frame rates compared to the competition. In particular, for Final Fantasy XIV and World of Tanks, the Intel Core i7-1185G7 even outperforms the competition in terms of frame rate at 15W, instead of 28W.

However, with titles like F1 2019 and Civilization 6, Intel’s chip is a bit behind the competition in frame rates. Either way, for the first time ever, Intel’s integrated graphics processor has really caught up and even surpassed rival AMD. With this power, users do not even need to buy laptops equipped with basic GPUs like the Nvidia MX350 to play casual games.

However, the graphics power is the most impressive highlight in the race between Core i7-1185G7 and rival Ryzen 7 4800U. In the race for CPU scores, Intel’s processor was completely below rival AMD even when it increased power consumption from 15W to 28W. Unsurprisingly, the Ryzen 7 4800U processor has twice as many cores and threads compared to Intel chips.

In tests conducted by Tom’s Hardware on Geekbench 5.2 and Handbrake Video Editing tools, AMD outperformed Intel in terms of performance, especially in multi-core performance tests. Intel processors only outperformed rival AMD in the Geekbench 5.2 test for single-core performance.

The same is true of the Cinebench R20 test, where the Core i7-1185G7 outpaces the 4800U competitor in the single-core test but loses in the multi-core test.

Another test that gets the attention of review sites is the tasks involved in encryption and decryption. These tasks are frequently used while surfing the web to protect sensitive user information such as credit cards, or online login information, from online hackers.

Core i7 Gen 11th and Ryzen 7 4800U encoder and decode test

The test of the processing ability on the neural network between Intel and AMD chips.

Besides, there are also tests on image processing capabilities as well as artificial intelligence tasks. The results of these tests, as well as the encoding and decoding capabilities, both show that the win belongs to Intel’s processors.

Even though these tests were only performed on an Intel reference device where the new processor’s power is best played, it also shows significant performance and power improvements in the Intel chip. new. Although still in 10nm and the core and processor thread is inferior to the competition, the dramatic improvements in graphics and other tasks have shown Intel’s commendable efforts in the past.

These tests show how well-awaited laptops equipped with Intel’s new Gen 11 ^th processors are expected when they launch in the near future.
