Intel reveals launch date for its standalone Xe-HPG gaming GPU

Intel has revealed new details about its upcoming range of discrete Xe GPUs - including a new gamer-focused chip - during the 2020 Intel Architecture Day.

The company first announced two years ago that it would launch its own discrete graphics cards, which are planned to roll out by 2020.

At CES 2020 in January, Intel detailed its Xe architecture strategy, dividing its GPU chips into three categories - Xe-LP, Xe-HP, and Xe-HPC.
