I’ve been curious about the some of the low-end, yet low-energy, mini PCs that have been coming out, specifically Alder Lake ones.
N95 and N100 seem pretty cool, however I have no idea what the iGPU model is. I’m aware that one of the better performing iGPUs is called Iris Xe, not to be confused with Iris Xe Max, Iris Plus, Iris Pro, which believe me, I can’t tell the difference because there’s no number sequence.
For the longest time, it was easy: HD 2000, HD 3000, HD 4200/4400/4600, and then I started noticing HD 515/520, then HD 6XX, UHD 6XX, and so on.
But for the life of me, can someone please give me a direction with this iGPU naming scheme?! I like to compare GPUs and CPUs, especially amongst AMD since they’ve clearly held the torch at being the most affordable and powerful iGPUs in the late 2010s. The Ryzen series was exactly why I left Intel and their lackluster UHD series.
I’ve been interested to pick up the n100 because it’s so cheap, but I don’t even know what the iGPU is called, and I can’t compare it to any benchmarks since I don’t know the model numbers…
At the end of the day, I’m close to just saying Ryzen 7000 series and getting a 660m or 680m, because I know they’re powerful, and at least I can look up their model number
Is anyone else frustrated with this?!
Are you going to say anything about how the Ti 4000 series is older and slower than the RTX 4000 series as well then? It’s common to reuse numbers.
Nah, I already did my line. You can use that one.
