differences in the entry: Description
This card is Intel's newest discrete graphics card, manufactured by Asus, with only 80EU, 4G RAM not working for now due to Intel have not yet "enabled" this card to work under regular Linux, there is support but you will need to build a special kernel and has no cooling fan on it. (This is confidence!)
It's GPU is similar do some work to those integrated in 10/11gen core i7/i9 processors, and actually Intel's i915 driver already get it running. To have code for this card. This is probably going it working out of the box, we have to wait, but it will be the first discrete graphic card that has libre official support for GNU/Linux.
Yet Intel (and maybe kernel guys) worried about the driver is unstable, so those code are flagged to be inactive. The Kernel guys may activate this driver again around kernel 5.16.
ready as soon as Ubuntu 22.04 LTS released.
