Intel is reportedly eying toward utilizing disaggregated GPU architectures, as Team Blue filed a patent that allows them to leverage dedicated logic “chiplets.”
Intel’s Newest Patent Filing Shows The Future of GPU Designs, Moving Away From Monolithic Structures To Specialized Chiplets
Well, for enthusiasts, the leap towards moving away from monolithic designs towards adopting smaller, specialized chiplets is an ambition that they certainly see the future of the markets in, and with Intel filing a new patent relevant to this, it is indeed exciting to say that the firm will adopt disaggregated GPU designs moving into the future, although we don’t know how far away we are from the actual implementation.
Earlier this month, Intel was finally granted a patent for its disaggregated GPU architecture, which will likely be the first commercial GPU architecture with logic chiplets, also allowing for the power-gate of chiplets not used to process workloads. pic.twitter.com/XsNjjdVIOu

Based on a patent filing (via @Underfox3), Intel is now exploring the route of using logic chiplets for GPU workloads, and we are hoping to see market adoption for now.
For those unaware, disaggregated GPU architectures is a rather innovative approach towards designing GPUs, which involves moving from monolithic configurations to small, specialized chiplets, which are then interconnected using relevant technology. Dividing the GPU design into chiplets allows manufacturers to fine-tune each…
