For gaming we are expecting a bit worse performance due to the missing dedicated graphics memory and driver support. First informations show that the chip can be configured at 15 and 28 Watt TDP default (as the Ice Lake-U chips) and the performance should be around a dedicated GeForce MX330 in 3DMark benchmarks.

The performance depends on the TDP settings of the laptop and the used cooling.

It is using the new Xe architecture (Gen12) and should be announced later in 2020. The Intel Xe Graphics G7 80EUs (Tiger-Lake U GPU with 80 EUs) is a integrated graphics card in the mid range Tiger-Lake U CPUs (15 - 28 Watt, e.g. The Iris Graphics 550 can be found in mobile processors specified at 28 W TDP and is therefore suited for medium-sized laptops and ultrabooks. However, HDMI 2.0 can be added using a DisplayPort converter. Up to three displays can be controlled simultaneously. 3840 x 2160 60 Hz), whereas HDMI is limited to the older version 1.4a (max. Displays can be connected via DP 1.2 / eDP 1.3 (max. The revised video engine now decodes H.265/HEVC completely in hardware and thereby much more efficiently than before. The fastest versions ( Core i7-6567U) may compete with a dedicated GeForce 930M and will handle modern games (as of 2015) in low or medium settings. The exact performance of the Iris Graphics 550 depends on various factors like 元 Cache size, memory (DDR3/DDR4) and maximum clock rate of the specific model. Besides the eDRAM cache, the Iris 550 is able to access the main memory (2x 64bit DDR3L-1600 / DDR4-2133).Ĭompared to the Iris Graphics 540 of the 15-watt series, the Iris Graphics 550 differs only by its slightly higher maximum clock and a nearly doubled TDP, which allows a better utilization of the Turbo Boost. Furthermore, the so-called GT3e-version features 48 Execution Units (EUs) clocked at up to 1100 MHz (depending on the CPU model). The Intel Iris Graphics 550 (GT3e) is an integrated graphics unit of the Skylake generation. As successors of the Iris Graphics 6100 (Broadwell), the Iris Graphics 550 can be found in CPUs of 28-watt series and offers 64 MB of dedicated eDRAM memory.
