Intel Iris Plus 940 graphics are the 11th generation of Intel integrated graphics that are going to release soon. Early benchmarks reveal that the Intel Iris Plus 940 is actually way better than what we have on the market from Intel right now. Intel Iris Plus 940 offers double the performance in some cases and the Driver Overhead 2 benchmark is the only case where the Intel Iris Plus 940 lags behind.
The benchmarks were posted on GFXbench and were compiled by Reddit user Dylan622p. These integrated graphics will come with the upcoming CPUs that are based on the Ice Lake architecture. These could be early engineering samples and the performance could change when we get the final product, so do take these numbers with a grain of salt. You can check out the Intel Iris Plus 940 performance numbers below:
Intel Iris Plus 940 graphics easily beat AMD Vega 10 graphics and in some cases, it is even better than the AMD Vega 11 graphics as well. These are early numbers and it is possible that final performance numbers will be higher. You can check out the comparison between Intel Iris Plus 940 graphics and AMD Vega graphics below:
Iris Plus 940 graphics is a step in the right direction and it does offer a lot of power compared to previous integrated graphics solutions. We will have to wait and see when these CPUs are released. Ice Lake is expected to be based on the 10nm process but we have yet to see these CPUs. Intel is also offering CPUs without integrated graphics in order to keep up with demand.
Intel is also working on introducing dedicated graphics cards and will be competing with AMD and Nvidia in the graphics space in 2020.
