A whole range of CPUs have integrated GPUs, but nothing on the high end.
I think there are technical limitations re. die size and heat dissipation if we wanted to integrate a high end CPU and a high end GPU in the same package.
- Aromasin 3y agoPrecisely this. Most modern CPUs would be better called SoCs, with CPU/GPU/XPU cores all on a single package. If you want any sort of stopping power in terms of the number of cores or the clocking speed of said cores, you need massive amounts of cooling, hence why GPUs are sold as bulky PCIe cards.
- eru 3y agoI think the Apple chips are the highest end integrated CPU/GPU chips? Especially on the mobile site, and if measured in terms of price. They are far from the best performers, of course. They are meant to run on low-ish power, especially compared to a desktop or server chip.
