Will This Run on Integrated Graphics? - Page 3

OP, I found a thread of ppl having issues with your CPU graphics on WoW Here, I think it is highly doubtful you will be able to play planetside 2 on integrated graphics, soz...

So do you think it will okay on Intel HD 2500? My monitor at the moment is 1154x864/1280x1024. I'm expecting low settings.

I would like to point out that I can run TF2 on high with no AA at 35-90 fps.

Oh and hi

you have a decent processor but you need to get a card... BIG TIME, go buy a decent card and slap it in your rig

Yep.

Hey, just registered because I'm in the same boat as you.

I have an Intel HD 3000 integrated card, but an i5 processor clocked at 2.8 ghz, with 8 GBs of RAM.

As a result? I can run most games that are 1-2 years old on high or near high settings, and most modern day games at around medium.

I myself am not worried at all about running PS2 - you learn how to make due with things, like turning Textures on High and everything else on low. It won't run beautifully while looking gorgeous like many people, but it's going to run just fine. Plus, it looks to be a more CPU oriented game, which is going to be no problem. My friends are always so amazed that my laptop can run shit so well, considering its not even a gaming oriented one.

No. Pick up a 550ti if youre strapped for cash, theyre about $130 to $150, and looking at videos and seeing as it runs BF3 on ultra with a few tweaks (af/vs off ssao), you can expect that to run it on high (assuming ultra is the highest) or perhaps even ultra with a few tweaks (AF 2xx or off, vsync off, 1900x (or lower) resolution as opposed to the 2000x resolution they use at the shows.

No sources for my info by the way haha just generalizations based on experience . . .

Or I could go with that I was planning which is way better than the 550ti: 660, 560, 560ti, 6870, 6950.

@JawsOfLife

Thanks for posting that video card comparison chart! I've been looking for something clean and concise like that!

Insanekanifer · 2012-07-28, 12:40 AM

You also need to realize in BF3 you only had to render less then 100 people... PS2 needs to be able to render over a thousand... that means video memory and "shared" memory that the integrated cards use just won't cut it.

Gentlemen, I present to you the holy grail of video card buying guides...

Look at the cards in the fifth and sixth tier, those will be in your price range.

No problem! I know integrated graphics are in this weird state where very few people know how they really preform, which is why I attached the chart and the benchmarks. I've reference that so many times it's crazy.

I already posted that like 5 or 6 posts ago

Very useful, isn't it?

Roidster · 2012-07-28, 02:41 AM

bottom line .....NOPE!!!

I have no idea, but I wouldn't give up hope.

Before I got my ATI 7770, I was using the i5's intergrated GPU to play Diablo 3. Ran pretty solid at 40-50 FPS w/ everything on low.

Was fairly decent for an on-die integrated chip.

no iam pretty sure you cannot run it on integrated, TF2 is something different, namely it (from a grafical detail and complexity point of view) looks shit. Your integrated gfx chip wouldnt be able to handle most of the shaders, nor any advanced directX.

If i had to guess i would say it should crash to desktop when it tries to render the game engine.

If you have little money buy a 460gtx and OC it.

I tend to upgrade every 4 years, it's a good idea to think ahead of time and try to store some cash, this time I held out for about 5.

I hear a lot of people say it's unreasonable but you figure a very good build shouldn't cost more than 1.1k and that comes out to saving 75 cents a day for 4 years.

Building machine isn't about getting top tier, because in most cases you don't gain as much as you'd expect.

My build is (bought everything through NewEgg):

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB $44.00

Gigabyte Z77 board $115 (tbh don't bother with an SLI board, its more money and if your machine really needs more juice, wait for better card not get another one)

E-VGA Superclocked 570 $270

Ivy Bridge i5 3.3ghz(3.7 TB) $205

Rosewill 750W PSU $95.00 (probably overkill but I don't mess with PSUs)

Azza Solano 1000 Full ATX tower $114

So about 850 there, but I didn't need a new monitor or drives so that's why I estimate at 1.1k(stupid hard drive price spike)

I hope this helps someone at least. FYI this machines damn near everything fine, the only two games I experienced slowdown is LA Noire(god that engine is sloppy on pc) and Guild Wars 2, but they said that they are working on it and tbh I only occasionally saw it with everything on high.
