skylake Intel iris (pro) graphics list

[SamXevor]

Hi there!

 

I'm looking for a list of intel skylake laptops with intel iris (pro) graphics. Is there such a list available or aren't there much iris laptops out there? 

(Sorry if this isn't the perfect place for the topic)

 

Thanks!

Why do you need Iris Pro laptops?

I'm looking for laptops like an ultrabook, that have good integrated graphics. So I thought the intel iris or iris pro would be very good for such tasks?

Thanks for the reply,

You're going to have a hard time. Most have HD 530

Yeah, that's what I've been noticing. Why aren't they used more often? Isn't it cheaper to have an iGPU instead of having to make place on the motherboard for a dGPU? Or are the chips so much more expensive to produce?

 

Thanks again,

Cause it's part of the plan - dGPUs die quickly and you need a new laptop

you can get the shitty msi gs30 or a MacBook pro if you want a 13-14 inch laptop.

I took a look at those and if those are the only other ones out there (for now) I think I'll be sticking with the xps 13, since they are equally or even more expensive than the xps 13 and I love it's design + it has the iris graphics as well.

 

I'm assuming there aren't a lot of laptops out there with the exact specs I'm looking for, but that makes sense if don_svetlio is right.

 

Thanks guys,

He is, a dGPU will die way sooner than a iGPU, that is also one of the reasons why a "gaming" laptop does not have a very long life.

Thanks! That's actually very helpfull. Have you found a laptop with the 6350HQ, I can't find one. The fact that it is an i5 is very interesting and should make it a cheaper chip than the i7 variants.

 

Thank you!
