Yeah punk. Living that 5700g life. Rocking 3700U as a daily driver, what? Yeah I have a fast graphics card, it’s called a 780m you might have heard of it from can barely play Baldurs Gate 3 but it counts as playable. Gaming on integrated graphics is cool because it’s a lower TDP option for the environment. Fight me. I’m over here playing 2017’s greatest offerings at nearly 60fps 720p and I’m enjoying myself. Oh, Cult of the Lamb? Yes, hahaha, I get over 40 fps in Cult of the Lamb. The only other gamers who can @ are switch and xbox series s gangsters. Mortal Kombat 9? Ah, “the good one” of course.
It runs, I’m gaming on it. I don’t care bro.
I spent my early gaming years breaking games to make them run on lower than minimum settings so I could maybe get 15fps.
Now I’m a performance snob and get annoyed seeing it dip under 100 at 4k
Goat Simulator, 62fps 1080p, 70% GPU use, 2W TDP avg, 5W peak.
My GPU? A smartphone’s Mali-G68 😁
“Once you try 144hz in 4K you’ll never want to go back”
Me underclocking my GPU, upscaling from 720p and doing 40FPS on a 60hz FHD monitor in the summer because the room gets hot:
Soon APUs will be strong enough that half of us will be gaming on mini PCs barely bigger than a phone.
I don’t want a massive PC that runs Crysis 6 at 7680p and 480fps.
I want a SFFPC that runs 1080|60 and we’re getting closer all the time!
My setup (R5 3600 and GTX 1660super) can play Cities: Skylines 2 just fine on Windows, but it runs like shit under Linux. I guess this is because of the Shared GPU memory.
