iGPU

[Ergroilnin]

Hello,

 

I have been wondering about what is the best iGPU out there and if that does beat say the old 730 or even the newer 1030? Are there even any dedicated GPUs which are worse than the high end iGPUs? if so, what is their purpose? Because I suppose that even best igpu cpu combo should not beat a decent cpu and entry level gpu at performance per price?

For people who don't need a GPU to have a way to connect a monitor. Also very useful for troubleshooting and backup when you GPU decides to act up or die.

in term of what? gaming? video decoding?

old dGPU are pretty bad at video decoding, my GT9600 can hardly decode some youtube 1080p videos smoothly.

most people who use iGPU just wanna use their computer for casual stuffs, like browsing n stuffs, nothing 3D intensive

i would even argue light gaming is fine on iGPU

uhh... nothing at the low end makes much of a good value for gaming if gaming is your priority

just spend a bit more on a GPU and you'll get massive improvements.

The Ryzen 5 3400G is the beefiest iGPU in the game right now. Its predecessor, the 2400G, was beaten by the GT 1030, as shown by GamersNexus, but it does surpass the 730. Hopefully the 3400G will compete with the 750 to this time around as the lowest end 1080p experience.

Just built a system with the 3400G for my mom. This is the perfect usecase of an iGPU: someone who doesn't intend to play anything newer than Sims 2 and wants to watch/stream 1080p/4k content without worrying about their computer ever being slow. All for the sweet price of $150
