How powerful is it? Or maybe how weak is it?

If I have for example a G3250. Which games can it handle?

Can it handle the common games like Dota or League of Legends or NBA 2k15/16?

 

Im just curious about those if it can handle, no need of GPU suggestions since I already have.

Thanks a lot to those who will give their input.

You'll have no problems with games like those. But you will not enjoy playing a triple A title like Battlefield or Assassin's Creed (examples). It would work but it would be very laggy and stuttery.

So there's no chance that it'll work w/o being laggy even at the lowest settings?

Well it depends on the game, but more modern titles I would say that it would lag quite considerably.

If it would be those games and its likes that are stated above?

Btw.. Thanks a lot for your input.

Yep. Glad I could help, but also you can go to YouTube and type in the processor and the game, you can find some good ideas of what integrated HD can do.

Did that but most results got a dedicated GPU with it. Pretty hard since G3250's iGPU only says "Intel HD Graphics", unlike Haswell i3 which has Intel HD Graphics 4400 or i5 which has Intel HD Graphics 4600.

The pentium series have the worst integrated graphics. If you want a better gaming Experience i'd go for either an apu or an i3 instead.

I don't think the 3250 will Cut it.

If it was like an i7 id have said maybe, but for one, the graphics on the Pentium are very weak and also its a weak CPU

Only very basic games at very basic settings will run, and I doubt at a good framerate

I'd push for an i3 at the least if I were you. Integrated on the Pentiums suck. An i3 (and definitely an i5)'s integrated is a lot better. I game on HD4600 and if you check out my profile, you can see what games it can play and rather comfortably.

 

But I'm pretty sure the G3250 will handle Dota/LoL just fine though. I wouldn't expect much outside of that...

Thank you very much for the input. I dont plan to purchase a processor since I already have a PC. Just need few info regarding the iGPU of Haswell Pentium.

Thanks everyone for the response. It helped a lot.

If the APU of an A6 can only just run League of Legends and Team Fortress 2, I don't think Intel's "HD" graphics are going to do that much really - they're there for powering a single (sometimes can push for two) monitors and desktop useage, not running Crysis 3 at ultra.

I don't believe there Iris Pro graphics are much better, even though I've heard mixed reviews about that.
