Thin and light gaming laptops will experience a big change according to new leaks about Intel’s new generation Lunar Lake processor. The potential performance level of integrated graphics powered by Intel’s next-generation Xe2 Battlemage architecture shows that integrated graphics cards are significantly evolving to achieve higher frame rates in the near future.
Not only Intel Lunar Lake, but also AMD and Qualcomm are coming with a bang
According to a SiSoftware benchmark result, there appears to be a previously released sample of the HP Specter x360 laptop using the Lunar Lake processor. This sample hardware features a Lunar Lake (Intel Core Ultra 200V) processor powered by Intel’s Xe2 Battlemage architecture.
The benchmark result in question shows a test result for the Intel Arc integrated graphics solution. The features of the graphics card show that it has 56 Execution Units (EU) and a structure running at 1.75 GHz. This graphics unit consumes 17W of power. With these features, the graphics card achieves 2,108 Mpix/s performance. This supports Intel’s claim that Lunar Lake graphics will be twice as fast as Meteor Lake.
However, since the laptop in question is a previously released model, it is important to approach this information with caution. It is also noted that the graphics card is not fully equipped with 56 EU, it is a cut-down version of the hardware, compared to the rumors that the flagship Xe2-LPG Battlemage graphics solution works with 8 Xe Cores.
However, let’s not forget that this leak may be false or fake, and it is also based on only a single benchmark result. It is also obvious that SiSoftware is not the best choice for graphics tests. However, despite all these details, there is a serious sign that Intel’s Lunar Lake integrated graphics cards can be truly impressive.
It is thought that Lunar Lake can take thin and light gaming laptops to a new level in running demanding applications and modern games better. However, the competition is also quite tough. AMD’s Strix Point processor has significant potential among laptop processors and is seen as a rival to Lunar Lake.
ARM-based processors like Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite (and Plus variants) also offer an interesting option for thin and light gaming laptops. The development of ARM-based processors that can run x86 software thanks to emulation may also herald a new era in the laptop market.
