Intel HD Graphics 610 vs Intel UHD Graphics (Jasper Lake 16 EU) vs Intel UHD Graphics (Elkhart Lake 32 EU)
Intel HD Graphics 610
► remove from comparison
The Intel HD Graphics 610 (GT1) is an integrated graphics unit, which can be found in low-end ULV (Ultra Low Voltage) processors of the Kaby-Lake generation. This "GT1" version of the Skylake GPU offers 12 Execution Units (EUs) clocked at up to 950 MHz (depending on the CPU model). Due to its lack of dedicated graphics memory or eDRAM cache, the HD 610 has to access the main memory (2x 64bit DDR3L-1600 / DDR4-2133).
The successor of the HD 610 is the renamed UHD Graphics 610 in the Whisky-Lake and Comet-Lake Pentium CPUs.
Performance
Depending on various factors like memory configuration, the HD Graphics 610 should similar to the old Skylake HD Graphics 510 and therefore can only handle non demanding games. E.g. Farming Simulator 17, World of Warships or Dota 2 Reborn can be played on low settings.
Features
The revised video engine now supports H.265/HEVC Main10 profile in hardware with 10 bit colors. Furthermore, Googles VP9 codec can also be hardware decoded. The Pentium chips should already support HDCP 2.2 and therefore Netflix 4K. HDMI 2.0 however is still only supported with an external converter chip (LSPCon).
Power Consumption
The HD Graphics 610 can be found in mobile processors specified at 15 W TDP and is therefore suited for compact laptops and ultrabooks.
Intel UHD Graphics (Jasper Lake 16 EU)
► remove from comparison
The Intel UHD Graphics 16 EUs (Jasper Lake, Gen. 11) is an integrated graphics card in the Jasper Lake Celeron SoCs for laptops and small desktops. It is the low end GPU version in the Jasper Lake series (Celeron Dual-Cores) and offers only 16 of the 32 EUs (Execution Units / Shader Blocks). It offers no dedicated graphics memory and the clock rate depends on the processor model. At launch there are two Celeron models (N4500 with 6W and N4505 with 10W) clocked at 350 - 750 MHz.
Thanks to the improved architecture and more EUs, the UHD Graphics is clearly faster than the old Gemini Lake SoCs (e.g. UHD Graphics 600).
A special new feature of the Gen11 graphics card is the new Variable Rate Shading (VRS) support. With it game designers can decide where to spend shading time and e.g. shade object in the background or behind fog with less resolution (up to using only one source for a 4x4 block). With this technique early results show up to 1.3x performance in Unreal Engine POC and 1.2x speedup in Civ 6. Up to now VRS is only supported by the new Nvidia Turing architecture (GTX 1650 and up).
Another improved hardware piece is the integrated video de- and encoder that was improved significantly according to Intel. They did not specify any more details, but the previous generation was able to decode VP9 and H.265/HEVC in Main10 profile with 10 bit color depth using the dedicated hardware.
The Jasper Lake SoCs and therefore the integrated GPU are manufactured in the 10nm process (like Ice Lake probably) at Intel that should be comparable to the 7nm process of TSMC.
Intel UHD Graphics (Elkhart Lake 32 EU)
► remove from comparison
The Intel UHD Graphics 32EUs Elkhart Lake (Gen. 11) is an integrated graphics card (iGPU) in the Elkhart Lake Pentium and Celeron SoCs (e.g., Pentium J6226). It was announced in early 2021 and is used in the high end Elkhart Lake CPUs. It uses all 32 execution units and offers no dedicated graphics memory. The clock speed depends on the CPU model and ranges from 4000 MHz (minimal base clock speed) up to 850 MHz (highest Boost clock).
The gaming performance is very low and only very low demanding 3D games should be playable. The slower 16 EU variant was even struggling in our Dota 2 benchmark.
