Integrated vs Dedicated Graphics

Are there any people able to play with integrated graphics? If yes, how is your experience?
I am curious about this due to knowing that people like to use laptops and out of the box computers for gaming. I was once in that spot, but I’m curious if the technology has advanced to a point that integrated graphics would work for MFS2020.

I have an integrated graphics PC /Dell Inspiron and though I do get a warning that my PC is below the minimum specs when I start the game the sim runs fine I never get CTD etc. To be honest it’s been amazing

I purchased a Series S Xbox to run the game/sim when it comes out in summer 2021 more cost effective than building a high end PC

It varies for each element from Medium couple on high and some low

I will try and post some screenshots tomorrow for you

Depends are you referring to specifically Intel integrated. If so those are way below the requirements. On the AMD side which is faster should allow low settings.HD 630 onboard here on my setup and the sim will likely not make it to the loading screen.

there from Intel I believe via Dell. Good point on the 1070 do you think I should just upgrade to another inspiron with a 1070 card

oh wow…thanks for the good points

Kind of. A used 1070 would be a great buy if you can get one for less than $200. If not, I’d try for a 2060 if you can get one at $299

This is the most important thing to keep in mind. I wouldn’t risk it if it’s below 450W and at least 80+ certified

If so, get a GTX 1650 (https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1650-gv-n1650ixoc-4gd/p/N82E16814932151?Item=N82E16814932151&Description=GTX%201650&cm_re=GTX_1650-)

Dell Inspiron integrated graphics on its way to Santorini in the Mediterranean

I have a AMD Ryzen 5 5625U with Radeon Vega 7 Integrated Graphics.
It does work fine on a steady 20 - 25 on cruise and 15 - 20 in big cities.
BUT it is running on custom low settings and does get a under minimum requirement acknowledgement every run.
I say not bad for a $80 cpu on a laptop!

15fps at low setting? At low MSFS looks much worse than FSX a decade ago.
This IS bad. I would seriously consider switching to FSX with your hardware.
