In Haswell, each graphics sub-slice features 10 EUs. AMD calls theirs a Compute Unit, NVIDIA’s is known as an SMX, and Intel’s is called a sub-slice. There are some enhancements, but for the most part what we’re looking at here is a dramatic increase in the amount of die area allocated for graphics.Īll GPU vendors have some fundamental building block they scale up/down to hit various performance/power/price targets. The fundamental GPU architecture hasn’t changed much between Ivy Bridge and Haswell. Haswell GT3 capable of hitting 1.3GHz is called Iris 5100, and finally Haswell GT3e (GT3 + embedded DRAM) is called Iris Pro 5200. Haswell GT3 at or below 1.1GHz is called HD 5000. Haswell GT1 is just called Intel HD Graphics, Haswell GT2 is HD 4200/4400/4600. While Sandy and Ivy Bridge featured two different GPU implementations (GT1 and GT2), Haswell adds a third (GT3).īasically it boils down to this. ![]() Intel attempted to simplify the naming confusion with this slide: ![]() With certain versions of Haswell, Intel once again parts ways with its old brand and introduces a new one, this time the change is much more significant. ![]() From that point on, all Intel graphics would be known as Intel HD graphics. ![]() In 2010, Intel’s Clarkdale and Arrandale CPUs dropped the GMA (Graphics Media Accelerator) label from its integrated graphics.
