As a special member of the eight-generation Core family, Intel Kaby Lake-G has integrated the AMD GPUs unprecedentedly, and achieved a match between the two die-hards. The graphics performance has reached the level of thousands of independent graphics cards.
However, there are not many Kaby Lake-G-based products, including Hades Canyo NUC, Intel's latest Hades Canyo NUC, Dell's 2-in-1 notebook XPS 15, and Chi-mini PC.

Interestingly, the relevant description shows that This new Chromebook notebook will be equipped with Kaby Lake-G (KBL-G)!
Only specifically which model will be used without any clues.

All three are quad-core and eight-threaded. The integrated Vega GPU core graphics card has 1280 stream processors and 1024-bit 4GB HBM2 video memory.
In addition, Chrome OS already supports Linux applications, you can install Steam, you will also support GPU acceleration later this year, and you can play games on your Chromebook by then.
