About Hardware Intel Iris Xe Graphics Mobile (80EUs, Tiger Lake)

Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 (80 EUs) Mobile is an integrated GPU that comes in the Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, part of the Tiger Lake family (11th generation Intel Core) released in 2020. This GPU has 80 execution units (EUs) with a frequency of up to 1.3 GHz, and supports various modern graphics technologies such as DirectX 12, Vulkan, and OpenGL 4.6.

Built with 10nm SuperFin fabrication, Iris Xe offers major improvements in power efficiency and graphics performance over previous generations, such as Intel UHD Graphics. The graphics performance is capable enough for multimedia, productivity, and light to medium games. Games such as Valorant, Dota 2, CS:GO, and Genshin Impact can be run smoothly at 720p to 1080p resolution, using low to medium graphics settings.

In addition to light gaming, Intel Iris Xe is also perfect for digital content processing, such as light video editing, photo processing, and 4K video playback thanks to its hardware decoding and AI-based media enhancement features. Iris Xe also supports multi-monitor output and modern connectivity such as DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.0, making it an ideal choice for productive users who need display flexibility.

On laptops like the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 that use a Core i5-1135G7 with 12GB DDR4 dual channel RAM, Iris Xe performance is optimized thanks to higher memory bandwidth. Even though the laptop is also equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce MX350 discrete GPU, the Iris Xe Graphics G7 is still sufficient for daily needs without having to rely on the dGPU, thus saving power.

Overall, Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 is Intel's best integrated GPU solution for mainstream laptops. The combination of solid performance, power efficiency, and support for the latest technologies makes it an ideal choice for users who want a modern graphics experience without having to have a separate graphics card.

Hardware Detail:

Device: Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6
CPU: Core i5-1135G7
dGPU: GeForce MX350
RAM: 12GB DDR4 3200MHz Dual Channel (8+4)
OS: Windows 10, Windows 11 22H2

About Hardware IMG PowerVR Rogue GE8320 680MHz

The PowerVR GE8320 is Imagination Technologies' Rogue architecture-based integrated GPU embedded in the MediaTek Helio P35 (MT6765) SoC. The GPU comes with two shader clusters and runs at a frequency of up to 680 MHz, delivering good power efficiency and sufficient performance for lightweight graphics needs in entry-level smartphones.

With support for modern graphics APIs such as OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.0, and OpenCL 1.2, the PowerVR GE8320 is capable of running a variety of multimedia applications and light games on Android devices. While not ideal for intensive 3D games or professional graphics applications, this GPU still provides a smooth user experience in everyday activities such as video playback, social media, browsing, and light multitasking.

This GPU is used in entry-level devices like the OPPO A5s and OPPO A15s, which feature 3/32GB and 4/64GB RAM and storage configurations, respectively. In a 30°C ambient temperature test using a DHT11 sensor, devices with this GPU showed fairly stable thermal performance. Using the OPPO A15s is more recommended for testing and using the latest apps due to its higher operating system support (Android 10), while some apps no longer support Android 8.

In synthetic testing, the PowerVR GE8320 recorded the following benchmark results:

• 3DMark Ice Storm: 10,470 points
• 3DMark Sling Shot Extreme: 404 points
• AnTuTu v9 (GPU score): 12,248 points
• Geekbench 4 Compute: 3,284 points

These benchmark results show that the PowerVR GE8320 is capable of handling basic graphics quite well, but it is not intended for heavy graphics workloads. This GPU is ideal for use in devices with HD screen resolutions that are focused on battery efficiency and a smooth daily usage experience.

Hardware Detail:

Device: OPPO A5s & OPPO A15s.
Device Specs: MediaTek MT6765, 3/32 (A5s), 4/64 (A15s), Android 8 (A5s), Android 10 (A15s).
Room Temperature: 30°C based on DHT11 Sensors.

* I use the OPPO A15s device as an addition to the Imagination PowerVR Rogue GE8320 680MHz hardware, because some applications do not support devices with Android 8 version
