Intel Arc 140V (Lunar Lake iGPU)

No editorial image yet — generic vendor mark shown. Credentials in spec table below.

Intel Lunar Lake's Arc 140V iGPU (Xe2 Battlemage architecture). Highest iGPU bandwidth on Windows in 2026 (137 GB/s LPDDR5x-8533). ~12-18 tok/s on 7B Q4. Pairs with Intel's NPU 4 (48 TOPS) for hybrid inference. The 'best thin-laptop iGPU for AI' choice in 2026.

Sub-scores sum to 164 / 1000. Headline = 164 × 0.70 (Estimated-confidence discount) = 115. This is an algorithmic performance-tier score — distinct from, and often lower than, the editorial “Our verdict” below, which weighs value and real-world fit (especially for hardware we haven’t measured yet).
