The Intel Graphics 2-Core Xe3 is an integrated graphics adapter of certain Wildcat Lake SoCs, featuring 2 Xe3 cores (16 EUs / 256 ALUs) and 2 raytracing cores.
The new media engine now supports AV1 encoding and decoding, VVC decode, AVC 10-bit and VP9 enc/dec and eDP 1.5.
The small iGPU is not suitable for demanding 3D games. Only undemanding and very old games should run smoothly.
The graphics core is located in the compute & GPU tile of the WCL chip and is manufactured on the modern 1.8 nm-class process (Intel 18A).
