Intel Graphics Technology (GT)[a] is a series of integrated graphics processors (IGP) designed by Intel and manufactured by Intel and under contract by TSMC. These GPUs are built into the same chip as the central processing unit (CPU) and are included in most Intel-based laptops and desktops. The series was introduced in 2010 as Intel HD Graphics, later renamed Intel UHD Graphics in 2017. It succeeded the earlier Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) series.

Intel also offers higher-performance variants under the Iris, Iris Pro, and Iris Plus brands, introduced beginning in 2013. These versions include features such as increased execution units and, in some models, embedded memory (eDRAM).

Intel Graphics Technology is sold alongside Intel Arc, the company’s line of discrete graphics cards aimed at gaming and high-performance applications.
