Intel mandates at least 7,467 MT/s RAM speed for Panther Lake — Slower memory will relabel the Arc B370 & B390 iGPUs as generic "Intel Graphics" in Task Manager
Intel has set a minimum RAM speed requirement of 7,467 MT/s for Panther Lake chips to ensure optimal performance of the Arc B370 and B390 iGPUs. Slower memory will result in the iGPUs being labeled as generic "Intel Graphics" in Task Manager. Failure to meet this requirement may downgrade the iGPU designation, impacting performance. Intel's mandate aims to prevent vendors from compromising on memory quality to cut costs and maintain the advertised high-end performance of Panther Lake chips.
