very interesting, the next generation of PC handhelds might have a significant performance boost with this chip. The question is now pricing, because this won't matter that much if the handhelds using them are $1500.

How are Intel GPUs on Linux ?

[–] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Decent I think, as long as you don't want to use XeSS

xe driver on first gen has no hardware encoding/decoding, vulkan performance isn't up to par, no power usage exposed yet iirc

The reason you don't hear much is because they usually Just Work.

What a time to have AMD CPUs and Intel graphics.

And Steam shipping an ARM desktop alongside their x86 handheld.

Not an ARM desktop, but an ARM headheld.

I am referring to the ARM Steam Machine next to the x86 Steam Deck handheld.

And virtual ram

Memory is extremely overclocked, and AMD hasn't announced their Zen 6 mobile cpus yet

But yes, 2/3nm apus will do amazing things for handheld gaming.
