Just a day after Intel stated that its Xe-HPG DG2 GPU powered graphics card lineup is right around the corner, a new leak has unveiled specifications of several laptop and desktop SKUs which will be launching later this year.
Intel Xe-HPG DG2 GPU Powered Mobility & Desktop Graphics Lineup Leaks Out, Coming To Alder Lake-P Laptops Later This Year
Published by Igor s Lab, the latest details show a block diagram that suggests that Intel had initially planned Xe-HPG DG2 GPUs for its high-end Tiger Lake-H chips which are launching next week but it looks like the lineup didn t align with the 11th Gen CPU launch hence they will now be introduced in the 12th Gen Alder Lake-P laptops that launch in the second half of 2021.
Intel’s Xe DG2 GPU is “around the corner” as AMD and Nvidia struggle with stock
Intel’s DG2 graphics card is set to disrupt the GPU duopoly, going up against rival high-end models such as the AMD RX 6800 and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070. It looks like Intel is gearing up for a release soon, with the company’s game developer relations engineer Pete Brubaker tweeting a job opportunity for a similar role, while including that “DG2 is right around the corner”.
The job description mentions collaborating “closely with game developers optimising their code and enabling the adoption of new technology”, further suggesting this is related to an ever-closer release of the DG2 model.

After the lackluster launch of Rocket Lake-S Desktop CPUs, all eyes are now set on Intel s 12th Gen Alder Lake-S chips. A brand new engineering sample has leaked out along with detailed specs such as clock speeds and power limits by Igor s Lab.
Intel Alder Lake-S 16 Core & 24 Thread Engineering Sample Desktop CPU Leaks Out - Up To 4.6 GHz Clocks at 228W PL2 TDP
The Intel Alder Lake-S Desktop CPUs will be part of the 12th Gen Core family and will be based on the 10nm Enhanced SuperFin process node. The CPUs will feature a hybrid architecture approach that will utilize Golden Cove x86 and Gracemonth Atom cores on the same die. More details on the Alder Lake-S architecture, die layouts, and configurations can be read here.
Intel Alder Lake looks more efficient than Rocket Lake in leaked specs
Intel’s 11th generation Rocket Lake processors might be less than two months old, but we’re already looking forward to its Alder Lake lineup expected later this year, bringing DDR5 support and ARM-like big.LITTLE architecture to gaming PCs for the first time. Now, with Igor’s Lab getting its hands on the specs sheet for an engineering sample, we might have an idea of what to expect from the 12th generation CPUs.
Dubbed an ‘Intel Core-1800’, the chip starts with a low base clock speed of 1.8GHz along with a boosted clock speed of up to 4.6GHz, although it’ll only hit these speeds on two of its 16 cores. Those consist of eight high-performance Golden Cove cores and eight high-efficiency Gracemont Atom cores, denoting the CPU’s big.LITTLE design.
