Intel built-in visuals for devices...
I'm not familiar with engineering details or CPU design, but shouldn't Intel skip creating an integrated graphics unit? Integrated GPUs would take up space and produce heat too. Right now I'm using a Ryzen 3600x with a 5700X, and I don’t see much need for built-in Vega graphics. I chose AMD because at the time of the Ryzen 3rd generation, the i5-9600K was priced lower than the 3600X, especially without Intel’s UHD 630. If it had supported more threads, I might have gone for the 9600K instead. I know some people use integrated graphics for basic tasks like email or schoolwork, but would it really be more cost-effective to avoid adding extra components? That’s just a thought. Thanks for understanding—I hope this helps move things along.
Space is available, but it won’t create warmth without use. Many BIOS settings turn off the integrated graphics by default, which isn’t too big of a problem if you add a dedicated GPU. Even then, the iGPU wouldn’t produce much heat unless you push it hard — the heat output changes based on the workload.
They cover the high-end and server components. It does take up space, but these chips often end up in many laptops and business desktops where customers need an integrated graphics card, and gaming PCs might not be a large enough segment to justify a separate die. I believe Intel is the leading manufacturer of desktop and laptop GPUs compared to NVIDIA and AMD. Their integrated graphics are sufficient for most systems.
