Intel Meteor Lake has two versions of GT2 and GT3

by ·

The structure of Intel’s 14th-generation Core processor Meteor Lake will undergo major changes, from the previous single-chip design to multi-chip, and use Foveros 3D packaging technology to seal these chips together. The CPU includes four modules in total, including the CPU module, GPU module, SOC module, and IO module. Among them, the CPU module adopts Intel 4 process, while the SOC and IO modules adopt TSMC 6nm process, and the GPU module adopts TSMC 5nm process. The modules are mounted on a passive mid-level that uses Intel’s 22FFL process.


According to the information provided by @Kepler_L2, the GPU module of Intel Meteor Lake will have two versions, one is GT2 and the other is a more advanced GT3. Among them, the GT2 module is used on the standard version of the processor, with 64 EUs and 512 ALUs in total, while the GT3 module is used on the high-end CPU, with a total of 128 EUs and a total of 1024 ALUs.

The GT3 model has the same number of EUs as the Arc A380 graphics card with 8 Xe cores, while the GT2 model has lower specs than the Arc A310 with 6 Xe cores. Of course, due to the limitation of frequency and power, the performance of these GPU modules is definitely not comparable to that of the discrete graphics, but it will still have a greater improvement in performance than the current integrated graphics, making it possible to rival the RDNA 2-integrated graphics of AMD’s Ryzen 7000 mobile processors.

According to the previously leaked PCI ID, it is confirmed that most Meteor Lake-P processors will use GT2 GPU modules, and more advanced GT3 GPU modules should be used in more advanced or higher-power products:
  • PCI_DID_INTEL_MTL_M_GT2, “MeteorLake-M GT2
  • PCI_DID_INTEL_MTL_P_GT2_1, “MeteorLake-P GT2
  • PCI_DID_INTEL_MTL_P_GT2_2, “MeteorLake-P GT2
  • PCI_DID_INTEL_MTL_P_GT2_3, “MeteorLake-P GT2
  • PCI_DID_INTEL_MTL_P_GT2_4, “Meteorlake-P GT2
