So it would be helpful Michael for newbies to your site to clarify just what "Gen 12.5" graphics truly means and what Intel SoCs and Discreet GPUs have or are classified as "Gen 12.5".

I know Gen 12 is Iris Xe. But is Gen 12.5 Iris Xe2 for SoC iGPUs and for Arc Battlemage for discreet GPUs ?

This applies to Alchemist discrete GPUs (such as Arc A770) and the upcoming Meteorlake integrated GPUs.
