The DG1 has been rumored to reflect Intel Tiger Lake specifications with rumored 96 Execution Units (EUs) – which means 768 cores. It was also expected that the card might have 3GB onboard, pointing at a (very) entry-level nature of the product. After all, it’s an integrated mobile chip converted into desktop graphics, or so the speculation appears to suggest. The Development Vehicle platform is not expected to take the market by the storm or surprise anyone, it is rather a chance for software developers to prepare for Intel’s desktop graphics market entry, or if you prefer, the first drop before the storm.Intel's Xe is expected to be out later this year. The company seems to primarily focus on the server parts and the version that will be used as integrated graphics processor on the chip giant's processor. Plans for the gaming market remain unclear.
