FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Intel is still committed to evolving its xe graphics architecture though it s only talking about ai data centers right now - Caught on Camera

Intel Arc B580 graphics card.

With Core Ultra 300-series processors (ie Panther Lake) showing that Intel's engineers are on top form right now, it's only natural that some PC enthusiasts are now looking ahead to what might come next, especially in the world of GPUs. At a recent conference, Team Blue provided some hints as to where its graphics chips will be heading, but with the focus being entirely on AI, it might look like the gaming market is being totally ignored.

Intel shared on X a brief video of Anil Nanduri, vice president of its data centre AI accelerators division, explaining the roadmap for Xe GPUs (via Overclock3D), though it's not overly stuffed with content. For example, the forthcoming X3P-powered Crescent Island GPU was announced last October, and the same architecture is expected to make an appearance in desktop Nova Lake processors later this year.
