With it game designers can decide where to spend shading time and e.g. The theoretical performance of the Chip is specified with 1.12 TFLOPS (FP32) and 2.25 TFLOPS (FP16) when running at 1.1 GHz.Ĭompared to the older Gen.9 graphics (e.g., UHD Graphics 620 in Whiskey Lake), Gen.11 is using a wider architecture and also has 3 MB dedicated 元 cache near the GPU.Ī special new feature of the Gen11 graphics card is the new Variable Rate Shading (VRS) support. All in all the GPU should be positioned in the entry level of dedicated GPUs ( Nvidia GeForce MX150 level?) and therefore most suited for less demanding games like Fortnite, Rainbow 6 Siege, or Rocket League at reduced details. Compared to the previous generation, Intel talks about a 2x performance improvement but wont specify the exact model.

Intel showed a Intel Iris Plus G7 against a Ryzen 7 3700U both configured at 25 Watt TDP and the Ice Lake GPU was able to beat the Vega 10 slightly in all games. The performance should be slightly above a AMD Radeon RX Vega 10 integrated GPU in the Ryseries processors. Another difference is the TDP as it can be configured from 12 - 25 Watt in the 15 Watt U-models and maybe even higher in the 25 Watt models that will come later. At launch it looks like all models have a 300 MHz base clock and only differ in the boost clock (1050 - 1100 MHz). The clock rate depends on the processor model. It offers no dedicated graphics memory (no eDRAM cache like the Intel Iris Graphics 655 predecessor of the Coffee Lake SoCs). The Intel Iris Plus Graphics G7 (Ice Lake with 64 EUs) is an integrated graphics card in the Ice Lake SoCs (10th generation core 10xxG7) for laptops.

The 900M series also supports Optimus to automatically switch between an integrated graphics card and the Nvidia GPU. Therefore, the 930M is best suited for laptops 13 inches in size or larger. The power consumption of the GeForce 930M should be about 33 Watts or less. Of course, VP6 supports all features of previous generations (4K support, PIP, video encoding via NVENC API). Unfortunately, HDMI 2.0 is still not supported. GM108 integrates the sixth generation of the PureVideo HD video engine (VP6), offering a better decoding performance for H.264 and MPEG-2 videos. See gaming benchmarks below for more details. Less demanding games like F1 2014 or Fifa 15 on the other hand should run in highest settings. This means that demanding games like Evolve are only playable in lowest settings. The performance should be a bit below an average GeForce 840M due to the slower core clock. Similar to GM107, the GM108 supports DirectX 12 with Feature Level 11_0 only. The larger size can process some of the memory traffic to allow for a relatively narrow memory interface without significantly reducing performance.

Smaller Streaming Multiprocessors (SMM) with only 128 ALUs (Kepler: 192) and an optimized scheduler should lead to better utilization of the shaders. Nvidia promises that a Maxwell SMM with 128 ALUs can offer 90 percent of the performance of a Kepler SMX with 192 ALUs. The 930M should feature the full GM108 with 3 SMMs (384 shader cores, 24 TMUs, and 8 ROPs due to the 64-bit interface).Īnother optimization is the massively enlarged L2 cache. Later in 2016, the successor named GeForce 930MX was released that was available with GDDR5.Ĭompared to Kepler, Maxwell has been optimized in several details to increase power efficiency.

Update: The N16S-LP variant (5-12 Watt TDP, Low Power version?) will be available with GDDR5 starting in the first quarter of 2016. As the LP version is clocked only at 457 MHz + Boost it may feature more shaders (or a high Boost). The shader count for these low power 930M are also unknown.

The performance of the GDDR5 version is still unknown.

The DDR3 variant should be approximately 10% slower than the 25 Watt version. In addition to the 'normal' 25 Watt 930M, there is also a low power variant with a TDP of 12 Watt and support for DDR3 and GDDR5. It is based on the last years GeForce 840M. The NVIDIA GeForce 930M (sometimes also called Nvidia GeForce GT 930M) is a (lower) mid-range, DirectX 11-compatible graphics card for laptops unveiled in March 2015.
