AMD brand mentions

Intel’s Gen12 Xe graphics architecture is finally set to debut in late 2020 with the Tiger Lake-U CPUs. Here you’ve got the Tiger Lake-U flagship with 96 Execution Units.

But that is the effect of the recent AMD launches, which forced Nvidia to release something to match the new RX 5500XT.
