An upcoming Battlemage discrete GPU, which will compete against the best graphics cards, has been benchmarked in Geekbench, giving us our first taste of what Intel’s next-gen GPUs might offer. Discovered initially by Benchleaks, the listing highlights a Core i5-13600K test setup paired with an “Intel Xe Graphics Ri” graphics card featuring 160 CUs and 12GB of video memory.
The GPU carries the 8086:E20B PCI ID, which coincides with Battlemage entries from a Linux driver. The PCI ID confirms that the GPU that emerged in Geekbench effectively carries the Battlemage G21 silicon. We’ve already seen the G21 in different shipping manifests, so it’s evident that Intel’s likely sampling it to its partners.
