Intel Demonstrates F1 24 Running at 1080P 60 FPS on Lunar Lake’s Xe2 GPU with Ray Tracing and XeSS

Until now for a very short bit during its Technology Tour, Intel featured the Xe2 GPU architecture in F1 24 and mentioned XeSS, Frame Gen, and architectural improvements in Battlemage.

More About the Intel Lunar Lake Xe2 GPU

During the Intel Technology Tour event in Taipei, the company showed its first gaming demo of the Lunar Lake CPUs which pack the Xe2 GPU and run F1 24. This demonstration is an Xbox launch title that is compatible with the XeSS technology as well and provides a fantastic comparison point for Intel’s advancement into the graphics space, with day 1 support for new Intel GPU features in a major AAA title.

The F1 24 demo is built to run on an unannounced Lunar Lake CPU as well as the Xe2 GPU, and it stayed inside the Lunar Lake power budget, too: around 17W. With the ray-traced shadows enabled, the game can run at 60FPS much all the time at 1920×1080 resolution and High settings preset and XeSS Performance modes, showing Intel’s low-power gaming performance progress.

Intel also claimed Lunar Lake chips will offer much-improved efficiency over its predecessors, and based on a 3DMark test from a PCWorld benchmark demo, the Xe2 GPU in Intel Lunar Lake chips is comparable in performance to a GPU from AMD or Qualcomm chips while consuming less total power. Additionally, Intel’s Technology Architecture Performance (TAP) provided insights into Alchemist, Battlemage, and future pixel/frame generation.

Intel is in search of new graphical experiences for this and is looking beyond the drives with small form factors Intel plans to create Xe2 GPUs for both discrete and integrated designs. Acknowledging initial challenges with Alchemist, Intel has made significant compatibility fixes and plans to provide better API support with Xe2.

TAP also introduced a novel approach to pixel generation, suggesting a GenAI approach as a potential alternative to Frame Gen. While this technology may not debut with Xe2 or Battlemage GPUs, future architectures like Celestial or Druid could incorporate it. If the promises about Xe2 GPUs hold true, Intel could offer mainstream gamers solid performance, supported by robust software and drivers, enabling smooth gameplay with the latest titles.

Marvel Have Got Their Man To Direct The Next ‘Avengers’ Movie

Marvel has always selected the directors for their films with great care, paying attention to details that might seem inconsequential to others.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – APRIL 11: Shawn Levy, recipient of the Director of the Year award, attends the CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards brought to you by The Coca-Cola Company at Omnia Nightclub at Caesars Palace during CinemaCon, the official convention of the National Association of Theatre Owners, on April 11, 2024, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) gradually moves towards a new ‘Avengers’ film, the director’s chair for this project is one of the most coveted positions in the entire film industry. Marvel already has a top favorite in mind.

Shawn Levy: The Top Pick for Directing the New ‘Avengers’ Film

Shawn Levy has become the leading candidate to direct the new ‘Avengers’ film. Kevin Feige has already selected him to helm ‘Wolverine and Deadpool,’ a film tasked with revitalizing the MCU. If this film meets its high expectations, Feige would have no doubts about Levy being the ideal person to bring success to their most ambitious project yet.

According to the American portal Deadline, the director has already received the script for the film but has not yet fully committed to the project. These uncertainties have prompted Marvel to explore other potential candidates, although they have made it clear that if Levy agrees, the director’s position is his.

The doubts surrounding the ‘Wolverine and Deadpool’ director stem from his busy schedule. Levy is currently involved in the final season of ‘Stranger Things’ and has also been mentioned as a potential director for a new ‘Star Wars’ film. With so many commitments, taking on another film that needs to be completed by mid-2026 might be challenging.

Deadline reports that Levy has received the latest script from Michael Waldron, but sources indicate that he has not yet decided whether to take the job. The studio is still planning to meet with other directors while awaiting his decision. Marvel Studios could not be reached for comment.

There have been four Avengers blockbusters: two directed by Joss Whedon (The Avengers grossing $1.5 billion in 2012 and The Avengers: Age of Ultron grossing $1.4 billion) and two by Joe and Anthony Russo (Avengers: Infinity War grossing $2.05 billion and Avengers: Endgame grossing $2.8 billion, making it the highest-grossing film of all time upon its 2019 release until James Cameron’s Avatar reclaimed the title with $2.9 billion after re-releases).

Marvel’s Ambitious Avengers Project: A Diverse Cast and Directorial Uncertainties

Even without a confirmed director and with the script only recently completed, Marvel has been working diligently in recent months to prepare for shooting next year on one of its largest productions to date. Sources close to the project indicate that over 60 MCU characters could reprise their roles, including Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Hiddleston, Simu Liu, and Karen Gillan. Unlike the first four films, which focused on a core group of Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Hemsworth, and Ruffalo, this new film is expected to feature a more balanced ensemble cast with many characters having equal importance.

Plot details remain undisclosed, and with Jonathan Majors’ departure from the MCU due to a recent assault conviction in December, the identity of the central villain is uncertain. It’s also unclear whether the film might feature multiple antagonists.

The Avengers project represents another significant endeavor for Marvel, considering its potential impact on future projects. However, with Levy at the helm, Marvel would secure a director with a remarkable track record of successful films, many of which are at the blockbuster level demanded by the MCU. Levy’s directing credits span from the Night at the Museum series to The Pink Panther, Big Fat Liar, Date Night, Real Steel, Free Guy, The Adam Project, and the Steven Knight-created series All The Light We Cannot See.

Moreover, as a producer at 24 Laps, Levy’s accomplishments are even more extensive, including the highly popular series Stranger Things.

After a five year hiatus from international cricket, Anderson relocated to the USA in 2020. His resurgence in the American domestic circuit has been nothing short of spectacular, making him a valuable asset for the USA team in the ongoing T20 World Cup. Anderson’s transition epitomizes the growing opportunities for cricketers in the United States and his continued commitment to the game.

Eoin Morgan: Ireland & England

Eoin Morgan’s switch from Ireland to England has been one of the most impactful in cricket history. Born in Dublin, Morgan made his international debut for Ireland and played in the 2007 ODI World Cup. His exceptional talent quickly caught the eye of the English selectors, leading to his switch to England in 2009.

Morgan’s tenure with England has been nothing short of legendary.

Wessels began his international career with Australia, contributing significantly in the early 1980s. After South Africa’s readmission to international cricket, he captained the South African team in the 1992 World Cup.

Wessels unique career is a pioneering example of dual representation, demonstrating that talent and leadership can transcend national boundaries.

David Wiese: Namibia & South Africa

David Wiese, a hard hitting all rounder, started his international career with South Africa. He later switched allegiance to Namibia, making a significant impact in the T20 World Cup for his adopted nation.

Here are the records Cristiano Ronaldo could break at Euro 2024

Cristiano Ronaldo will be playing the European Championships for the sixth time in his career, having won the title once in 2016. That title remains the only trophy the prolific striker has won with the Portugal national team.

The five time Ballon d’or winner has made a career out of breaking records, and could make history again when he takes to the pitch in Germany for Euro 2024. Here are some of the records he could break in the upcoming tournament.

The records Cristiano Ronaldo could break at Euro 2024

Oldest goalscorer at Euros

Currently, Ivica Vastic (38 years, 257 days) holds the record for being the oldest goalscorer at the Euros, having scored for Austria against Poland in 2008. Aged 39, Ronaldo can easily set the record for himself if he scores even once in the tournament.

Only player to make six Euro appearances

Barring last minute injuries, Cristiano Ronaldo is set to become the only player in history to play the European Championships six times in their career, once he plays in Germany.

Ronaldo could also become one of the oldest players to feature in the Euros, but that record is likely to be broken by 41-year-old Pepe, who has been named in the Portugal squad by Roberto Martinez, and is very likely to play as well.

Saul Niguez to leave Atletico Madrid permanently in summer 2024

Atletico Madrid have told Saul Niguez that they are not expecting him to stay for the 24/25 season. The Atletico academy graduate’s importance in the first team has been steadily reducing this season. Most of his 34 LaLiga appearances have been from the bench, and it now seems that the club is ready to cash in on him.

The Spaniard spent the 21/22 season on loan at Chelsea, and struggled to find his footing there. He hasn’t quite been the same since returning to Atletico Madrid in 2022, with his role becoming less prominent with every passing season.

Saul Niguez to leave Atletico Madrid in summer 2024

The 29-year-old has played over 2,000 minutes of football this season, but his quality hasn’t been up to the level he once showed. Prior to his loan move, he was part of a solid midfield duo with Koke. But, it now seems that Atletico are ready to move on.

Saul has a contract with Atletico Madrid until 2026, which means they can charge a higher fee than his market value. But, since they want to part ways with him, they are more likely to accept a cut-price deal to get him off their books.

All in all, Saul Niguez has made 427 appearances for the Rojiblancos, scoring 48 goals and providing 26 assists. He has won the LaLiga, Copa del Rey, Supercopa de Espana, UEFA Super Cup and two UEFA Europa League titles with Atletico since his promotion to the first team a decade ago.
