Panther Lake has another powerful iGPU in its lineup but you'll probably never see it
Intel's upcoming Panther Lake processors feature powerful integrated graphics (iGPUs) like the 12 Xe-core B390, but high DRAM prices driven by AI demand may prevent these chips from appearing in affordable laptops and handhelds. Manufacturers like Framework are opting for higher-end configurations due to the minimal cost difference, suggesting that the full potential of these iGPUs might remain inaccessible to consumers.
