Intel and AMD's lovechild has finally been announced with Intel's first chips sporting AMD graphics technology. They are the 8th Gen Core CPUs with RX Vega M.
This makes them the fastest mobile CPUs with graphical capabilities comparable to dedicated GPUs. This will make ultra slim laptops maintain their sleek size while having decent gaming capabilities. More information is slated to be announced at this year's CES.
Intel will partner the RX Vega M with the first batch of the 8th Gen Intel H-Series Core CPUs which are usually paired with dedicated GPUs like Nvidia's GTX 10-series. Now, this is Intel's first all-in-one solution since their integrated GPUs before have been sub par to say the least.

There are two variants of AMD Graphics which are the RX Vega M GL and RX Vega M GH. The GL version is for laptops which has a lower clock speed while the GH version is meant for smaller desktops like Intel's NUC. You will get the GL version with the 8th Gen of Core i5 and i7, while the GH is only available for the Core i7.
You can expect the GL version to have a performance 1.4X faster than a GTX 1050 with a 7th Gen Core CPU while the GH version is considerably faster than a GTX 1060 with a 7th Gen Core CPU.
