Motherboard integrated graphics die out in 2015

With the GPU graphics core or integrated graphics returning to the processor, the space for the motherboard to display will be increasingly narrow. Jon Peddie Research, a well-known market research agency, today announced a report predicting that the motherboard collection will completely disappear in 2015.

The report titled "The opportunities, threats, and changes created by EPG and HPU—inflection points are on the verge of fire." The term "EPG" refers to Embedded Processor Graphics. Intel Clarkdale is a two-chip package. " HPU is Heterogeneous Processor Units. Intel Sandy Bridge and AMD Fusion APU belong to this group.

JPR pointed out that as Intel and AMD have successively integrated powerful SIMD graphics processing modules in multi-core, multi-stage scalar x86 processors, PCs and related industries are ushering in a new turning point. Traditional integrated board graphics (IGP) will Slowly exiting the stage of history, at the same time discrete graphics will gradually fall out of favor.

In 2008, motherboard sets and discrete graphics cards each accounted for two-thirds and one-third of the overall graphics market; in 2010, EPG’s share has exceeded one-fifth, motherboard sets have dropped to less than half, and discrete graphics cards. After a period of low tide, it rose back to more than 30%, but it was more like a flashback.

In the next few years, EPG’s share will soar rapidly and then slowly decline. In 2015, it will still occupy half of the country; HPU will rise all the way to 2015, reaching a quarter; discrete graphics will gradually decline, leaving only one-tenth in 2015; The set will show a complete decline in two years, and then say goodbye; in addition there will be a growing part of the market, the above types will coexist.
