Intel Arc G3 Extreme

The Intel Arc G3 Extreme is a fast mid-range SoC with 14 cores from the Panther Lake family for handhelds. The chip also offers a powerful 12-core iGPU.

Features

The Arc G3 Extreme integrates a compute tile, which is manufactured by Intel using the new 18A process. This includes 2 large Cougar Cove P cores with up to 4.7 GHz, 4 of the 8 Darkmont E cores and 4 small Darkmont LP E cores (low power). The new NPU 5 with 50 TOPS INT8 and an IPU-7.5 image processor are also integrated. The integrated memory controller supports up to 96 GB LPDDR5(X)-8533.

The GPU tile includes a powerful iGPU called Intel Arc B390 with all 12 Xe3 cores and ray tracing support. In the Arc G3, however, the GPU is only clocked at 2.3 GHz.

The third chiplet integrates the platform controller with 12 PCIe lanes (as with the other two chips), 4x Thunderbolt 4, Wi-Fi 7 (R2) and Bluetooth Core 6.0. The platform controller is manufactured by TSMC.

Performance

The CPU performance is likely to be similar to that of the Intel Core Ultra 5 338H (12 cores, but with 4 powerful P cores with up to 4.7 GHz).

Please note: The above information is currently still based on leaks, for example from Videocardz.
