The iGPUs of the Intel Nova Lake processors with Xe3P graphics will set their PL2 consumption at 40 W





Just a few days ago we told you how the most powerful iGPUs of the Nova Lake-S for desktop computers they needed up to 65W dedicated power supply from the motherboard. Now, the same filter in his X/Twitter account expands this information to ensure that the GPU PL2 of these Intel Nova Lake will be fixed on a 40W limitbeing the PL2 for the full 154W processor.

PL2 power limits and 12 Xe3P Cores to replace dedicated GPUs

This will come for the already mentioned Nova Lake with 12 Xe3P Coresprocessors that Intel will launch for desktop computers with a Powerful integrated GPUand capable of replacing lighter dedicated graphics card models. According to Jaykihn’s post, the power limit for the PL2 GPU is 40 Woffering a limit for the entire chip of 154 W.

More L2 cache and launch planned between the end of the year and 2027

In addition, the same user has left in his account information about the cache that this GPU will have, where the 12-core Xe3P model will have 20 MB dedicated. This increases cache by 4 MB in the Panther Lake with 12 Xe3 cores, offering a significant increase that will surely impact the performance of this improved version of Intel graphics.

Intel is expected to launch these processors at end of this yearalthough with a estimated availability early 2027. According to rumors, Intel will first offer references with a single CCD, while processors with up to 52 cores will arrive during the second quarter of next year.
