Hi Readers, Now that we've got benchmarks I've clarified that it would be an MX350 or MX450 competitor depending on the benchmarks. There is a link now in that section to another NotebookCheck article specific to the Tiger Lake release showing how it compares to both of those dGPUs in three synthetic GPU benchmarks. On these results there are two slightly ahead of the MX350, and one slightly behind the MX450.

Of course, anymore with Intel you have to take into account the half dozen or so security flaws that will be found over the course of the next few/several years, each of which will have a fix that will reduce the performance by ~3-10%. So after a couple years it will probably be equivalent to a Whiskey or Ice Lake with MX250-level performance.

QuoteThe ultrabook SoC variant of the Iris Xe architecture is claimed to offer a "discrete GPU level of performance", this would likely place it as a competitor to the MX450 from Nvidia.

Lets not get carried away lol

This is in line with leaks for months. OTOH the Ampere announcement suggests bad scaling on the low end with a hypothetical 120W 3080 mobile part seemingly only ~33% faster than 2080 mobile, I don't imagine even weaker parts would scale any better.
