Intel reveals details of Core i7 8809G proc with Vega M Graphics & standard IGP

Intel released specifications and information on its website regarding their Core i7 8809G processor with Vega-GPU. The Core i7 8000 series based proc will get hyper-threading and four cores.



The Indian version of the Intel website also shows the Core i7-8809G at 3.1 GHz and has 8MB L3 cache. In addition, the site mentions a 'target package tdp' of 100W and support for ddr4-2400 memory. 

The GPU this is Vega based, and the "Vega RX M GH". What's hilarious is that the processor also holds the standard Intel IGP, an HD 630 and that means this one processor has the two integrated graphics units.Other specs on say compute units etc are not shared, neither is HBM2 memory mentioned. Looking at the fact that this info is shared now, close to CES .. is indicative of an announcement next week.  There already have been a number of leaks on what seems to be this Frankenstein CPU/GPU build. 

The 8709G would come with a Turbo up to 3.9 GHz, the base clock thus 3.1 GHz. There is hardly any information about the GPU clock, some tools have read 1.0 to 1.2 GHz. Earlier on a photo surfaced online showing the massively huge MCM design. On the left-hand side of the photo, you can see the Intel processor and to the left, the larger AMD GPU with the HBM2 stack. 


 
A 14nm Vega architecture was the choice for the GPU, Intel also mentioned the usage of HBM2 earlier on. Earlier this year Intel already announced their Embedded Multi-Die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) making these things (a second die) possible, for modular builds. The Intel and the AMD part communicate over what basically is a PCIe Gen 3.0 bridge wired in-between each other. The first products based on MCMs will likely be embedded products and laptops, they should launch by Q1 2018.
