About Hardware Intel Iris Xe Graphics (80EUs, Tiger Lake) [Disk]

Intel Iris Xe Graphics (80EUs, Tiger Lake) is the integrated graphics solution (iGPU) of the 11th generation of Intel Core processors, specifically the Tiger Lake series. With 80 Execution Units (EUs) and support for Intel's latest graphics architecture, Iris Xe is capable of delivering significantly better performance than previous generations, including in terms of lightweight graphics rendering, 4K video playback, and casual gaming. Another advantage is its excellent power efficiency as it is directly integrated in the CPU, making it ideal for thin and power-saving laptops.

In this test, Iris Xe Graphics was configured to utilize part of its shared memory as a VRAMDisk. The VRAMDisk concept allows the use of a portion of VRAM-which in iGPUs like Iris Xe comes from the main system RAM-as high-speed storage. While not as fast as physical RAM-based RAMDisks, VRAMDisks on iGPUs still offer very high read/write speeds, mainly due to the optimization of the graphics architecture and the wide memory bandwidth.

The test was conducted on a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6, with an Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, 12GB DDR4 3200MHz dual channel RAM, and Windows 11 22H2 operating system. Based on data from dxdiag, the dynamically available VRAM reaches 6GB, and in this test, 2GB was allocated as VRAMDisk using GPU RAM Drive software.

Benchmark results from CrystalDiskMark show read speeds of 2758.52 MB/s and write speeds of 2109.43 MB/s. These speeds are significantly higher than SATA SSDs and even close to mid-range NVMe SSDs, making VRAMDisks on iGPUs an attractive experimental solution for temporary data caching, storage performance testing or other specialized scenarios. With a 128-bit bus width and support for 3200MHz DDR4 memory, Iris Xe VRAMDisk shows that even integrated graphics can be creatively utilized for high-speed storage tasks.

About Hardware Samsung KMQD60013M-B318

Samsung KMQD60013M-B318 is a 32GB eMMC (embedded MultiMediaCard) storage module designed for mobile devices, tablets, and embedded systems with a need for reliable, efficient, and affordable internal storage. Featuring eMMC 5.1 technology, the module delivers significant improvements in read/write speed and power efficiency over previous generation eMMC versions, making it a great choice for consistently supporting operating system and application performance.

The module uses Samsung's proven NAND flash memory, providing better stability, durability and power consumption efficiency over the long term. Its compact design also allows for seamless integration in embedded systems and entry- to mid-range smartphones, without sacrificing the basic performance required for everyday needs such as opening applications, storing photos/videos, and performing system updates.

The test was conducted using a Realme C2 device, equipped with a MediaTek MT6762V SoC (Helio P22), 2GB of RAM, and 32GB of Samsung eMMC 5.1 KMQD60013M-B318 internal storage. The system runs on Android 9 with the ColorOS 6 interface, giving a real sense of how this eMMC performs in real-world use.

Benchmark results show that this storage module delivers quite responsive performance for its class. In tests using AnTuTu Benchmark v10 (Mobile) for storage tests, the Samsung KMQD60013M-B318 recorded read speeds of up to 183.7 MB/s and write speeds of 40.0 MB/s, which is sufficient to ensure a smooth user experience in running applications or moving between menus.

Meanwhile, in the Cross Platform Disk Test, the results obtained were 80.64 MB/s (read) and 12.15 MB/s (write), reflecting actual performance in cross-platform scenarios or mixed load usage. Testing with PCMark for Android - Storage 2.0 also gave numbers close to AnTuTu's results, with 182.94 MB/s for read and 13.34 MB/s for write, showing consistent performance in various synthetic tests.

Overall, the Samsung KMQD60013M-B318 32GB eMMC 5.1 is an economical yet competent internal storage solution, suitable for use in entry-level mobile devices that prioritize power efficiency, long-term reliability, and stable base performance. Whether used in smartphones, IoT devices, or other embedded systems, this module offers added value with Samsung's signature quality.
