Intel Graphics 1 Xe3 Wildcat Lake iGPU

Intel Intel Graphics 1 Xe3 WCL

The Intel Graphics 1-core Xe3 is an integrated graphics adapter found in certain Wildcat Lake SoCs with just one of the two Xe3 cores enabled (8 EUs / 128 ALUs), and 1 raytracing core.

The new media engine now supports AV1 encode and decode, VVC decode, AVC 10-bit and VP9 enc/dec, and eDP 1.5.

The small iGPU is not suitable for demanding 3D games. Only undemanding and very old games should run smoothly.

The graphics core is found in the compute & GPU tile of the WCL chip and is manufactured on the modern 1.8 nm-class process (Intel 18A).
