Intel and amd will launch a joint processor with radeon graphics

This possibility has been discussed for a long time, that an Intel Core processor could carry an AMD Radeon GPU inside and finally it will become a reality.

AMD and Intel create an Intel Core processor with Radeon GPU

The years of rivalry between AMD and Intel will have an impasse, with the creation of an Intel Core microprocessor with a custom AMD Radeon graphics core in multi-die technology, with the aim of bringing first-rate games to notebook PCs. light and cheap.

It is well known that the graphics performance offered by AMD processors within its APU series (CPU + GPU) is far superior to that offered by Intel, and in some way, the Mountain View company accepts its 'defeat', allowing AMD add your own GPU inside an Intel Core processor (although not exactly inside but in a multi-die design) .

Intel was the first to approach AMD

Intel was the first to approach AMD, both companies confirmed. AMD is creating this Radeon GPU as a unique, semi-tailored design, along the same lines as the chips it supplies to the Xbox One and Playstation 4 consoles. However, some specific data remains undisclosed: Intel refers to it as a single processor, although it seems possible that a range with different clock speeds could be offered.

This Intel Core processor with GPU Radeon is intended to improve the graphics performance of laptops and improve portability. Currently a 'gaming' laptop is too heavy and thick, Intel and AMD want to end this problem.

At the moment we are left without much information; Will this new processor be based on Kaby-Lake or Kaby Lake-R? Will the Radeon GPU be a variant of VEGA? What will be the price of a laptop with this technology and when can we see the first models? Questions that will be revealed over time. We will be aware of all the news.
