Intel Battlemage GPU Test Tools Reveal Larger Package Size Than Alchemist

BGA2362-BMG-X2 Interposer

Intel's Arc Alchemist graphics cards have proven worthy to be on the list of best graphics cards. The chipmaker is readying its next-generation Battlemage graphics cards for 2024 and has released some test tools for its partners that hint at Battlemage's package sizes.

Intel has a Design-In Tools store that offers its partners design and validation tools for the chipmaker's existing and upcoming products. On this occasion, hardware sleuth Harukaze5719 discovered the BGA2727-BMG-X3-6CH and BGA2362-BMG-X2 interposers designed for testing Battlemage graphics cards. A previous Battlemage leak claims that Intel is reportedly preparing at least two silicon for the next-generation graphics cards: BMG-G10 (<225W) and BMG-G21 (<150W). In the meantime, it's uncertain if any of the silicon corresponds to the recently unearthed interposers. Remember that we're talking about package size, which differs from die size.
