Network sources have shared the results of testing the performance of the flagship Intel Core i7-1185G7 mobile processor of the new 11th generation Tiger Lake series of mobile chips. The novelty has demonstrated a noticeable increase in computing as well as graphics performance.
The Intel Core i7-1185G7 chip is supposed to be the top model in a series of new Tiger Lake processors using the new Willow Cove compute core microarchitecture. It has four physical cores, eight virtual threads, 5 MB of L2 cache, and 12 MB of L3 cache. The processor is also equipped with an entry-level DG1 graphics subsystem based on the new Xe-LP architecture. It is characterized by the presence of 96 execution units (Execution Units, EU), offering a total of 768 graphics cores.
Computing benchmark results for the Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor were in the Geekbench 5 database by the notorious user TUM_APISAK. According to the information recorded in the database, the nominal frequency of the processor is 3,0 GHz. In the automatic overclocking mode, it can rise to a value of 4,8 GHz. Thus, the base and maximum frequencies of the flagship chip are approximately 2% and 7% higher than the values demonstrated by the pre-flagship model Intel Core i7-1165G7. Compared to the Ice Lake Core i7-1065G7 based on the previous 10nm process, the Core i7-1165G7 has a 2,3x higher base clock and a 23% increase in maximum clock. The nominal TDP value of the new chip is 15W. The maximum power consumption level PL1 (power level 1) reaches 28 watts.
The published data also contains information about the frequency of the Intel Xe DG1 GPU. It currently stands at 1,55 GHz, which is 20% higher than what was observed in the results of previous tests, where this figure was equal to 1,3 GHz. Thus, the DG1 integrated graphics performance level currently reaches 2,4 teraflops, which, by the way, is higher than the GPU performance of conventional versions of the PlayStation 4 (1.84 teraflops) and Xbox One (1.31 teraflops) consoles.
Twitter user with nickname graph comparing Tiger Lake's Geekbench 5 OpenCL graphics performance against other graphics solutions. It shows that the GPU performance of the Core i7-1185G7 processor is approximately on par with the results of the AMD Radeon Pro 5300M mobile graphics card. The Blues graphics score 22 points in the test, while the Reds' solution shows a score of 064 points. At the same time, the Intel processor slightly outperforms the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 23 Ti discrete graphics card.
Also, the result of measuring the performance of the Intel Core i5-1135G7 model as part of an Acer laptop has been published on the Web. This entry-level chip also has four physical cores and eight virtual threads. The amount of L2 cache is similar to the flagship (1,25 MB per core, which gives a total of 5 MB), but the younger model has a smaller amount of L3 cache - only 8 MB.
The base frequency of the Core i5-1135G7 is 2,40 GHz. In auto overclocking mode, it can increase up to 4,20 GHz. In the single-core test, the chip scored 1349 points, in the multi-core test - 4527 points. In comparison, the AMD Ryzen 5 4600U with six cores and 12 virtual threads scores 1100 in the single-core test and about 5800 in the multi-core test. Thus, despite having fewer cores and threads, Intel's Tiger Lake Core i5 is about 22% faster in single threading and only 28% slower in multithreaded tasks.
Intel is going to officially introduce Tiger Lake processors on September 2, that is, next week.
