Exposing Intel Haswell Integrated GPU Performance Five Times SNB

Recently, Intel software engineer James Reinders published a blog post that explained the TSX instruction set that Haswell added to Ivy Bridge's next generation product; it will make the processor bottom layer more suitable for parallel programming and greatly increase the efficiency of Hash and so on.

In addition, SemiAccurate's big mouth Charlie also broke the news that the previous rumors completely underestimated Haswell's GPU capabilities. He said that Haswell's graphic cores include GT1, GT2, and GT3. The top-level GT3 has an enhanced version of the 40 EU Ivy Bridge (execution units). Even if it is not enhanced, it will have almost 2.5 times the performance of Ivy Bridge. According to Intel's own Ivy Bridge graphics core, a single EU is 33% more efficient than Sandy Bridge, and the overall performance is double. The performance of the Haswell GT3 graphics core will be five times that of the current Sandy Bridge HD Graphics 3000.

Charlie said that if the information he has is true, even the APUs of the next two generations, Trinity and Kaveri, must also beware of Haswell's progress. Although the Ivy Bridge has only 16 EUs, the progress is not great. The pressure on Trinity is not enough; however, by 2013, the performance throne will accidentally lose its integrity.
