That&apos;s not altogether very many for a gaming GPU, but for a better idea of what to expect in a discrete card you need only look to the the Arc A770. It comes with 32. So think of all the new additions to the Xe2 architecture listed here but multiplied a good few times over and you&apos;ll have a rough estimate of Battlemage&apos;s potential.<\/p>\n<p>The new Xe2 architecture has been built to be scalable like that, Petersen says.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery inline-layout\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-wrap\" style=\"display:flex; flex-flow:row nowrap;\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 1 of 3<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"GfioR4mQabEELoe5neFqEU\" name=\"xe2-009.png\" alt=\"Intel Xe2 architecture detailed in Taiwan.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/its-on-our-first-look-at-intel-battlemage-comes-from-lunar-lakes-new-graphics-silicon-with-its-redesigned-xe2-architecture-1.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Intel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 2 of 3<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"USXztJcdmAn7Uj4htmWjwV\" name=\"xe2-003.png\" alt=\"Intel Xe2 architecture detailed in Taiwan.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/its-on-our-first-look-at-intel-battlemage-comes-from-lunar-lakes-new-graphics-silicon-with-its-redesigned-xe2-architecture-2.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Intel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 3 of 3<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"4vj2k9iivevxB7SbYYjGCX\" name=\"xe2-004.png\" alt=\"Intel Xe2 architecture detailed in Taiwan.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/its-on-our-first-look-at-intel-battlemage-comes-from-lunar-lakes-new-graphics-silicon-with-its-redesigned-xe2-architecture-3.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Intel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Xe-cores in Xe2 have been improved for higher performance, better utilisation, and greater compatibility with games. That last point is particularly important, going off Intel&apos;s previous form.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most often you&apos;ll see games running right out of the box,&#8221; Petersen says.<\/p>\n<p>I sure hope that&apos;s the case. Behaviour that can best be described as clunky, or inconsistent, has been the thorn in the side of Intel&apos;s first discrete cards, Alchemist. To get a grasp of that would be a big improvement.<\/p>\n<p>As Petersen explains: &#8220;It&apos;s been a journey. And we&apos;ve learned a lot about CPU limitations, about share compiling, about DX9, and all of that effort has gone forward into Xe2.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Some of the lessons learned have led to &#8220;correcting&#8221; some mistakes of Alchemist to improve compatibility and efficiency. The shift to SIMD16, rather than SIMD8, in each Vector Engine is one step towards that, says Petersen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our prior generation was SIMD8, which means, basically, there&apos;s eight lanes of computation for every instruction. We&apos;ve moved that architecture to be 16 wide, which has a lot of efficiency benefits.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another is execute indirect support baked into the hardware, via the Command Front End, which is a command used commonly in game engines, including Unreal Engine 5. This was previously emulated in software on Alchemist, which led to slowdowns.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Think about Xe2 as the next generation of GPU architecture designed to be more compatible with games and higher utilisation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The higher utilisation point gets my attention. Alchemist never did manage to take full advantage of its rather sizeable silicon for the money. If you recall back to the lead-up to the Arc A770, which was intended at one time to compete at the mid-range of Nvidia&apos;s lineup. It couldn&apos;t make it stick, however, and ended up an entry-level contender.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If utilisation has improved with Xe2, it may mean even a similar size and spec Battlemage GPU would perform a lot better than its equivalent predecessor.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery inline-layout\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-wrap\" style=\"display:flex; flex-flow:row nowrap;\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 1 of 1<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"PGt6uFEmhWKwPWhqrRUyVW\" name=\"xe2-002.png\" alt=\"Intel Xe2 architecture detailed in Taiwan.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/its-on-our-first-look-at-intel-battlemage-comes-from-lunar-lakes-new-graphics-silicon-with-its-redesigned-xe2-architecture-4.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Intel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Xe2 architecture&apos;s Render Slice includes improvements to deliver 3x mesh shading performance, 3x vertex fetch throughput, and 2x throughput for sampling without filtering. Bandwidth requirements should be lower, and commands are more in line with what games often use.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Some of the changes appear small and fiddly, on a minute technical level, but altogether should see Intel&apos;s next Arc cards, and Lunar Lake laptops, tripping themselves up on the latest games far less often than the first-gen Alchemist GPUs.<\/p>\n<p>One of the more significant overhauls has been to the Ray Tracing Unit (RTU) in Xe2. The newer generation unit will offer more capability to resolve BVH (bounding volume hierarchy) queries that are used to speed-up ray tracing workloads in real-time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery inline-layout\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-wrap\" style=\"display:flex; flex-flow:row nowrap;\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 1 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"H9HdDRp6vpGLUo7RJCsuoS\" name=\"xe2-007.png\" alt=\"Intel Xe2 architecture detailed in Taiwan.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/its-on-our-first-look-at-intel-battlemage-comes-from-lunar-lakes-new-graphics-silicon-with-its-redesigned-xe2-architecture-5.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Intel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 2 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"pgp2uH3Z5nUXcyZSdbABFR\" name=\"xe2-005.png\" alt=\"Intel Xe2 architecture detailed in Taiwan.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/its-on-our-first-look-at-intel-battlemage-comes-from-lunar-lakes-new-graphics-silicon-with-its-redesigned-xe2-architecture-6.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Intel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Petersen signs off with a comment about why they&apos;ve made some of these decisions.

That&apos;s surely the market leader in this case, Nvidia.<\/p>\n<p>I don&apos;t mind how Intel gets it done, providing the end result is a graphics card I can reliably game on.
