On May 25th, news broke that after the birth of the Intel Arc Alchemist discrete graphics card, although it has been continuously improving itself, the market size is not large. Many people are worried whether Intel will abandon its future roadmap and stop producing them.
The second generation, codenamed Battlemage, is set to debut by the end of this year. So, will there be a third generation Celestial and a fourth generation Druid?
The latest update log of the authoritative hardware detection software HWiNFO prominently mentions the newly added support for Intel Battlemage and Celestial.
Clearly, at least the third generation of Celestial has already been finalized and can be trusted.
Interestingly, Intel's next-next-generation processor, Panther Lake, will upgrade to the Xe3 architecture integrated graphics, which originates from Celestial.
Furthermore, the update log also lists Melville Sound, the codename for Intel's next-generation data center GPU architecture.
This indicates that Intel's Xe GPU will not only persist but will also continue to diversify.
