CES 2018: Intel announces 8th Gen Intel Core Processors with Radeon RX Vega M Graphics!

The impossible has happened! At Las Vegas CES 2018, Intel launched a first-of-its kind: An 8th Gen Intel Core processor with an AMD Radeon RX Vega M Graphics!

Intel with Radeon?

It is packed with features and performance with the gamers, content creators and virtual/mixed reality fans in mind. This effectively expands Intel's portfolio because of its optimization for small form factors like 2-in-1s, thin and light notebooks and mini PCs.

HP and Dell are already making a new thin and lightweight 2-in-1s that is alongside the most powerful NUC Intel has ever introduced. 

There are two configurations

1. 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M GL Graphics (65W total package power).
2. 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M GH Graphics (100W total package power), which features an unlocked configuration.

This new 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M graphics delivers top spec experience to gamersa and VR enthusiasts. It includes up to three times the frames per second on thinner, lighter and smaller devices compared with similar systems from three years ago and up to 40 percent increase compared to the current discrete graphics like the GT 1030.

Content creators can also produce more with the new processor. In comparison with a 3-year-old PC with discrete graphics, content creation with Adobe Premier Pro with the new 8th Gen Intel Core processor with Radeon RX Vega M now runs up to 42 percent faster. This now allows for flexibility and performance in the growing 2-in-1 form factor PCs.
