We got intel in the news. The company seems dead set on removing a functionality they used to advertise pretty hard. And that is the AVX 512 instruction set for their Alder lake CPU’s.
Now as is, Intel never really mentioned AVX 512 support for the 12th gen series of CPU’s, but the silicon itself supports it. There’s a great video out there from derbauer explaining how to actually use it. All you really had to do was disable the E-cores and boom, AVX 512 was turned on. Well starting now, intel will advise motherboard manufacturers to disable the feature either in the bios or through a microcode update.
AVX 512 is used in some programs, like the blender cycles renderer or it can accelerate things like scientific simulations, financial analytics, AI, and others. So it’s not trivial. But if you game, its basically never used by developers, so it’s fine. It’s just a shame that those that could have taken advantage of it won’t be able to.
Also with intel, Let’s talk XE… or ARC. Or alchemist I guess. One of their discrete GPU’s has been spotted on the SiSoft Sandra online database. Specifically, it was the A380. What is supposed to be the mid to low-range performer on intel’s stack. Now, as we’ve heard through the rumors, Intel isnt gunning for the top spot in this first generation of gpu’s, which means that this will not be a mid-range performing card like a 6600 series from amd or a 3060 from Nvidia.
Anyways, back to the leak, the A380 was found by momomo US on twitter and according to what we can see here, it has 128 execution units for 1024 stream processors, would be clocked at 2.45Ghz, so pretty high clocks here, and.. 4.8GB of vram ? Yeah, that doesn’t sound right, but anyway, moving on, with its score within the database, it places itself right under a 3050 ti laptop GPU , and an RX 580X and right above a 1650 super. Now, if that’s any representation of gaming performance, its not bad. Especially considering this is the 128 EU version of the card. Remember, Intel is possibly planning a 256, 384 and 512 EU version of the Alchemist SOC.
But as with any leaks, take it with a grain of salt.
