According to the reports, Intel has released the graphics driver 27.20.100.8783, which provides support for the 11th generation Core Iris Xe core display. The Iris Xe core display brings many new features, such as high dynamic range support, Dolby Vision video encoding acceleration, support for HEVC 12bit 4:2:0/4:2:2/4:4:4 decoding and VP9 12bit 4:2:0/4:4:4 decoding, etc.
As shown in the figure above, the Xe graphics architecture is different from the original. 96 EU units are arranged on both sides of the CPU core, occupying a lot of space in the CPU package. In terms of parameters, Xe-LP (low-power version) adopts the same architecture as the independent display DG1. It is currently the most efficient architecture for Intel PC mobile terminals.

It has up to 96 execution units. In the previous demonstration, this graphics card runs A very smooth effect can be obtained in mainstream games. The new architecture design makes the Xe core display not only powerful but also covers a wide range of functions. It supports asynchronous calculation, view instantiation, sampler feedback, updated media engine with AV1, and updated display engine.
