At CES 2025, Intel showed us XeSS FG running on an Arrow Lake mobile chip, and it's awesome.
Not only is the new part able to offer a significant performance uplift to over 100 FPS in F1 24 thanks to XeSS FG, but the fellow running the demo, Intel’s Mike Bartz, also demonstrated another potential benefit of XeSS FG. Putting the Arrow Lake system into a low-power “whisper” mode limited the SoC to just 15W, and yet the machine was able to maintain approximately 60 FPS in F1 24 thanks to XeSS FG.
That’s particularly impressive considering that the Meteor Lake part was requiring over three times as much power to produce the same visual experience. Now, we have to admit that 30 FPS frame-gen’d to 60 FPS is not the most pleasant experience, and probably not something we would want to do in a racing game like F1. However, for a title like Civilization VI or Marvel’s Midnight Suns, this might be a great solution.
