It's okay for a workstation GPU, using in an HP Elitebook alongside an i7-6600U with an SSD and 16 GB of ram, it seems to drag down the computer's capabilities a lot. as the other 3 main components usually match or beat recommendations for specs, but the GPU almost always falls under minimum, leaving this GPU only able to play PS3/XBOX360 era games, even then requiring a config to get good frames when dealing with fast maploading or particles.

It drives the display, I guess. Not powerful, and not useful for anything graphically intensive. I guess watching youtube works, at least. Groetjes!

Runs Minecraft on 75fps and medium settings fine with some bios tweaking and other optimization. Damn you Lenovo for not adding a ExpressCard slot on my T460.

For Intel HD, and because I used it for years, this is actually pretty good for what it is

Absolute crap but these graphics are what got me into so many games even though they were all played at low with 20 fps.

Good for office work but you can only play light games for gaming. I had to use it for gaming for a long time and it wasn't good.

Is it absolute garbage? Yes. Does it need to be better than absolute garbage? Not really? While it is quite bad in some aspects, it runs standard Windows and stuff very fine. 3D graphics and video decoding/encoding don't work well, but otherwise it runs decent?
