The fact that it can run Valorant and Skyrim decently is pretty cool. Meaning it also can run: Fallout (1-NV), Morrowind, Oblivion, Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen, Dragon Age: Origin, Kingdom of Amalur, Divinity 2 Developer's Cut, etc. just fine
It's cool that integrated graphics are finally some what usable with the Ryzen's. About 25 years ago I had a summer job as a kid. I saved up 600 bucks and went to best buy to get myself a pre-built. (I knew nothing about computers yet) I ended up getting a discounted display unit with an Intel celeron 600 mhz, 64mb of sdram, and a 20gb HD. 600 mhz is .6 ghz. It had integrated graphics and some how I managed to play counter-strike at 800 x 600 resolution. Some of the cheapest smart phones on the market blow my old computer out of the water. Crazy how technology just keeps on going.
Skyrim is my most played game by quite a bit with over 4500 hours across over a half dozen characters, 2nd place being PC Building Simulator with over 2500 hours. Back when I first started playing Skyrim Legendary Edition in 2013(32 bit, all major DLCs) I did so on a refurbished 2012 laptop I got in June of 2013 with an AMD A8 4500M APU sporting HD 7640G graphics. It had 2x4GB sticks of DDR3 1600 Ram, a 750GB HDD and a 15.6 inch 1366 x 768 display. I probably did more playing on an external 15 inch 1027 x 768 CRT than on any newer PC with higher res screen. I think I used mostly high settings with a few very high. The game would chug a bit when I first loaded into an area but would smooth out fairly quick. I didn't know about the Steam FPS counter overlay until years later. I guess my frame rate would drop quite a lot on the steps up to Dragonsreach in Whiterun but I didn't know it until then. I was blissfully unaware of just how low my frame rates could get, but the game seemed to run okay enough for the most part most of the time.
I've used a Laptop with AMD E1-2100 CPU, Radeon HD 8210 iGPU (on par or weaker than gt 210 I think) 2GB of RAM, and no SSD (probably the worst part here) from 2014 to 2019. Factorio runs at around 40fps, but it takes around 15 minutes to load .
I had previously just given up on UHD totally. To be honest, I think you did a good job getting some form of playability from the 620 here. I was expecting way worse... .
Ahh yes the Intel UHD 620 Graphics...still use it and can't wait to upgrade to an RX 6600. BTW loved the video Kryzzp and as a side note I use the i3-8130U which sucks but it gets the job done.
Having to download a 100gb game just to play it for 2 minutes (or zero, when it crashes). Then delete it and download another one... man i feel your pain. I really appreciate your work!
Disabling turbo boost helps alot with overheating CPUs, you can also try undervolting with ThrottleStop and it'll make a noticeable difference in FPS and Temp
Yeah but that's basically a hit or miss sometimes it works the other it doesn't I used throttleup to do so since Acer doesn't have that option in bios freaking motherboard@@dee_wade
This is exactly what I used to play on, but with even worse specs! I had an i3-8130U and 4GB of RAM. I just about ran Splitgate at the time at 640x480 at 30fps. I ended up upgrading to a GTX 760 PC which was a huge upgrade 😂
The reason why CPU may seem to be a bottleneck sometimes is because the power limit is set to a whole CPU+GPU combo, to make that combo work under certain limit the CPU clock goes down when GPU usage goes up and vice versa, and GPU heavy situations like gaming forces CPU to throttle. It is supposed to deliver the best balance between CPU and GPU power and is great for battery life, but unlocking the power limit with apps like ThrottleStop will (as the name says) stop the CPU and GPU from throttling, at least until the thermals are alright.
@@olnnn Yeah, that's also what you can do from the throttlestop program. My old laptop with i5 4210U was performing extremely bad in games because the CPU sometimes could throttle as far as 800MHz just to keep that iGPU clock high at default 15W TDP. I set the power limit to unlimited and undervolted it a little bit and in some situations the performance was over double what it was before and the power draw was still just 25W without throttling even a little bit. Unfortunately some laptops are not able to undervolt, I later had few 8th and 9th gen machines and all of them were able to, but some 10th gen and later machines had voltage control options completely greyed out in throttlestop so you can't change it.
@@mruczyslaw50 At least on the 10th gen laptop I have I can undervolt but have to disable Memory Integrity in windows 11 for throttlestop to work otherwise it's not available - not sure if it's possible to increase the power limit though, it seemed like that was much more complicated on newerso haven't bothered trying as I mainly did it to keep temps down anyhow.
@@olnnn I always disable memory integrity because it does hit the performance by a little bit in some situations, but undervolting still wasn't available. If you were able to do it then it may be just a BIOS related lock in certain laptop models, not something related to the intel chip generation itself.
I use a system with this gpu. A really important thing to note is that vulkan performance is terrible. Idk why, but while the 620 technically supports vulkan, it should be avoided at all costs in favor of opengl or directx (since im on linux I usually don't have much of a choice :/). Basically any AAA game made after 2014 is gonna struggle. Also, a couple things that help: 1. Lowering FOV will increase fps noticeably in many games. 2. Playing at a 4:3 or 5:4 aspect ratio usually increases fps, even if a similar amount of pixels are being displayed. 3. Closing any apps that you have open (discord, webbrowser, etc) will usually give an fps boost. 4. Idk why, but lowing your refresh rate to 30hz (or even 24hz in extreme situations) will make things feel smoother than just setting an fps cap. 5. Some games there is a .ini file that you can tweak the LOD settings and other options. You can basically make RDR2 look like a cursed ps1 game doing this.
great video! I remember when I had the Intel HD 4000, I used to play a game called, Amnesia: The Dark Descent. I used to also play Combat Arms haha. Good old times :D Now i have a laptop with an Geforce RTX 4050 6GB of VRAM and 64gb of ram. I think that's pretty good. Cpu is Intel core i7 13th gen 13620H
With that tiny heatsink the i7 probably performs the same as the i5 8250u... since they're the same chip and basically only difference is the clock speed. Oh wait, the i7 has a bit more cache Curious to see what Cinebench R23 number you can get out of it
I would love to see Doom Eternal on these really low end PCs because that game is super optimized and runs fast on ANYTHING. Even switch plays well surprisingly.
I have i3-8145U version. Valorant will be quite heavier on Competitive mode. Games I play regularly: Live for Speed(simracing) 1080p75+ Medium; League of Legends 1080p60 Medium; STALKER GAMMA (FREE) 720p45 High settings DX8 mode. Other games that I enjoyed: Metro 2033 and Last Light Redux (720p45(0.5xres) lowest settings), Tomb raider 2013 (720p45 lowest settings), Grid Autosport (720p60 Low Settings). I installed ThrottleStop for undervolt and make CPU more efficient and to control temps and fan noise. Went from 320cb to 360cb on cinebenchR15 and reduce temp from 95 to 87. I further put lock to 3GHz max clock so it doesn't become loud and hot because of Turbo 3.6GHz, I don't really need it, also wastes less battery, though I use 2.1GHz profile for super efficiency, and unlocked profile if I really need the extra CPU performance. 4 years running and no problems for me.
Ah yes, My Previous Laptop's iGPU before I upgraded to a 750 Ti, it was decent for me. Since I only played Roblox, Minecraft and CS:GO at 720P low it was some what playable on it. But still better than the GT 710. Btw cool video Krzzyp!
@@Eleganttf2 your country is not the only country. In my country the RX580 is very expensive. And the GTX 750 Ti is perfectly fine for light/low-spec games. Not everyone is playing triple-A games, some of us enjoy lighter games like Minecraft, Valorant, Roblox, GTA San Andreas, etc..
did you optimize this laptop before playing on it? because i have a laptop with the same iGPU but an i5 8250u which has the same TDP as this but i can't even sustain 60fps in Valorant at 640x480 in with the lowest settings and all bloom an shadows turned off from the condig files.
It's decent for older games (GOG store), like TES 4: Oblivion, or emulators of older consoles, esp. with Tiny10/Tiny11. The biggest issue is that Intel XTU doesn't work on Windows 11 with this CPU, so you'll have to use either Linux, or Windows 10 if you want to lower power consumption/life from battery.
Hey Kryzzp, long time viewer! I really love your videos not just* for the useful insides on the gaming hardware, but mostly for your personality :) Also wonder if you could maybe recap 2060/2060s in 2024, would be much appreciated Either way kudos for your work, you're amazing, I love you dude :p
Im still to this day playing with a uhd 620 graphics on my laptop and i struggle alot playin some games tbh i hv no way of upgrading my laptop to a better one
I actually just got a Lenovo IdeaPad with similar specs from Salvation Army for like just under $100 CAD and its actually in a like new condition. Here’s the specs: CPU - Intel Core i7-8550u GPU - Intel UHD 620 Storage - 1TB HDD RAM - 8GB DDR4 I’m currently looking through all the games that might theoretically work and quite frankly at this point, the only somewhat playable games that could work on it is likely games that came out 2015 and older. 🤷🏻♂️
Bro dats criminal my new lappy is worth 600$ and it has Cpu - Ryzen 7 7320u Gpu - Amd radeon graphics Ram- 8gb LPDDR5 SSD- 512 GB Idk how u got it so cheap but even my new lappy is so potato dude m depressed about the buy😫😫😭😭
That same CPU/iGPU in a Dell Latitude 7490 was my travel laptop for a couple years. 17W max. Yeah Valorant is about the 3D limit, though Portal is good and Fortnite used to play well, even a year ago. I got second place using that lil laptop! Tomb Raider '13 is OK with the right settings, even Rocket League played better than your end clip showed but I think I was playing at 720p. Have a newer latitude with Xe now, like 3X as fast lol.
I remember playing Far Cry 3 on a dell laptop powered by a i3 4005u 1.7ghz hyperthreaded dual core with Intel HD 4400 graphics and 4gb DDR3 single channel RAM. I used to play on similar settings and remember getting close to 24FPS which felt really smooth back then. I think Far Cry 3 would be a decent experience if you can lock it to 30FPS on this system.
I used to have this laptop. Exact specs but it was an hp spectre. My mom got it for me back in 2016, and i had it until 2021. I used to play left 4 dead 2 all the time and light emulation. It surprisingly came with a 4k display too although idek why. Glad i eventually upgraded though because the performance sucks balls.
Watching this on the Dell latitude 7400 i7 8th Uhd 620. Considering that I upgraded from an intel celeron, this isnt so bad. I might need to buy an external graphics card later I guess
Please see if you can lift the power limits. On my HP Elitebook 840 G5 with an i5 8350U, I can lift the power limits in Throttlestop to basically unlimited.
i have that exact same laptop and to be honest, to have optimal results you have to set EVERYTHING at 30.. fortnite is pretty playable setted at 30fps, and 2d games as well... warzone is not playable some UE5 games can crash, but overall this can be a ''starter pack'' but if u gonna play 1,500 on this laptop just buy an RTX please
used to play Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition on a Lenovo T440s with i7 4600u & intel HD 4400. Ran fine until they updated the menus and the UI. Unfortunately they never changed the minimum system requirements, where it still says intel HD 4000, but at this point you need I think at least something like 6th Gen integrated graphics to run the game somewhat smoothly. Still playing on integrated graphics these days, but the Radeon 680m in the Ryzen 6800HS is way more potent then the Intel UHD ones. Only playing old games anyway. Highest demanding game I play on this is Age of Wonders Planetfall, which runs well at 2560x1600.
Fun fact: GTA IV, with the tweaked stream.ini and start parameters, using DXVK... it's amazingly playable at 720p, medium texture quality, no shadows and everything else at 35 or higher.
I wonder if would Intel package their A-series GPUs with their CPUs in laptops; I think that it'll be such a huge leap in price-to-performance for those machines. I could guess it'll be around $1000 for a very good laptop/desktop experience with some gaming on the side, especially since the real bottleneck for those GPUs right now is the drivers 🧍🧍
One good thing about laptop lower resolution doesn't look terrible on 15inch screen like 1366x768 or 1600x900 I have dell laptop with iris xe igpu and tried out some older games 2015-2020 it actually playable with 30FPS locked and low mid settings
You should try again downloading an older version of Intel xtu. The newer versions don't work but if you can find an old one from about 4 years ago it should probably work
You can use an older version of Intel XTU and it'll allow you to adjust the core voltage offset. I actually did this just yesterday with my old i5-8300h laptop 👍
what version did you have for this lol, cyberpunk 2077 opens normally and i was able to finish the entire game lol ( at 20 fps but whatever ). The worst thing about this igpu is the bottlenecks intel puts on it and the drivers, one version can be COMPLETELY disastrous for performance while another works immensely well. and ive also been able to play rainbow six siege at 60+ fps haha. very surreal stuff
1 suggestion is that you should use throttlestop to limit cpu clock with these laptops and check temps to get consistence performance. I use it on my macbook pro 2018 (native windows). Before i used it on intel inspiron 5000 10th gen
27:37 Except that with 15 watt CPUs if they share the power budget with their graphics you can often legitimately see a drastic improvement when it comes to a CPU bottleneck by relieving some load off the graphics. I do highly doubt that those graphics would really pull a significant enough amount of power to do that though...
FWY, I have an XPS 13 2021, the laptop is a huge disappointment, has audio and charging problems, and looking online this seems pretty common, so look that up if you are considering the XPS line (because in the last few years it really fell down hard)
I have that uhd graphics on my hp Elitebook GT1030 X360 Laptop. Might died down owning it on November 2023 trying to play and ready for a better laptop that will game.
Thanks for the video. I'm impressed to be honest so much so you've convinced me to buy a ThinkPad with the same chip for $40 off eBay. Can't get much better value. RDR2 hardly plays well on average desktops, let alone laptops.
That's my current one. I'm hoping to be able to build a new computer soon. Thank you so much for your videos, they are helping me decide on what to go next (most likely a Ryzen 7 5700G and later choose a graphics card)
You can try to remove the power limit by uninstalling the thermal frame work driver and then install throttlestop to manually set the boost clock so that that clock speeds does not change too often. I tried this on my i5 7200u.
@@madmehtab should be in your device manager. “Intel thermal framework driver” make sure you uninstall and delete the driver. If you remove this power limit, it will guarantee your processor will reach 90C or more so be careful. You probably have to install throttlestop too to manually switch turboboost on and off.
this is my graphics card in my main laptop i use for gaming im saving for a pc but ive used this graphics card for a while now and its the best gaming experience ive ever known even though ik its bad its all ive ever used or gotten
Hi, Kryzzp. Can the next Sunday video be the RTX 3050 6gb? In South Africa, it's being sold for R3750 (around $206). That is cheap but I need to know how it performs with today's most popular games before buying it
The cooling of this laptop is extremely bad. My laptop has an i5 8250u and it performs much better with the igpu (which is also an UHD 620). It can even serve the dedicated gpu (Nvidia mx150) well, no cpu bottlenecks at all. 12:39 - LOL, that cpu's clock even drops below the base freq. Maaaan, that cooling system must be terrible!
you will see colors change and little strings come out of the chip meaning extraction of etching chems layer Seperators and even run off or burnt materials. , clean after you see no more chems or colors come out . then paste and ENJOY NITRO out
Games that i have played AND beat on this gpu with 12 gb ram and i3 7th : Dark souls 1-3 Elden ring Sekiro Batman arkhams (all except knight) Monster hunter rise
My Dell Latitude 5580 had the hd620 and it works perfectly for me. I even run basic games. Ever since I switched to macOS I haven't really used it a ton tho, macOS works MUCH better for my needs. If anything, I'm only keeping the Dell on Windows cus of Windows programs. This laptop is kinda beautiful tho
The i7-8565u in that laptop just beats the i7-2600K but still loses to a i7-3770. The Intel UHD 620 is comparable to a GT 640, yes a card that came out 12 years ago. Also, the CPU is not gonna reach 4.6 GHz, at max 2.5 GHz.
Valorant on 720p low and going into the config file to reduce the UE4 values to 0 helps a ton, I can achieve a solid 110-120 FPS with an i7-1255U Though when there are more than 3 big ults it drops a bit, like Viper pit, Astra wall, Brimstone orbital strike 😢
Would you be able to make more videos with the 4070 please im buying my first PC and i wanna have more information about it and you're my favorite person to watch on game tests
according to Techpowerup the UHD 620 has 384 GLOPS of theoretical FP32 performance, which would make it slightly weaker than a docked Nintendo Switch 😭 although that's in the i3's, on an i5 the 100 MHz higher clock actually brings the performance to 422 GLOPS and the 150 MHz on the i7 models bring it's to 441, but dawg barely surpassing the Switch ain't something to be proud of 😭😭😭

Guys remember when Counter Strike used to be more optimised than Valorant?
That’s CS:GO, you’re comparing CS2 to Valorant. CS:GO and CS2 are different games even though they are fundamentally the same thing
Cs2 is little bit more demanding though
CS2 is a new engine, CS2 still needs optimizations but far from being bad, It's more demanding because honestly it just looks better.
Why do people think cs2 will run as good as csgo because that’s literally not possible. Clearly there’s better graphics so it’ll be more demanding.

I have i3-8145U version. Valorant will be quite heavier on Competitive mode. Games I play regularly: Live for Speed(simracing) 1080p75+ Medium; League of Legends 1080p60 Medium; STALKER GAMMA (FREE) 720p45 High settings DX8 mode.
Other games that I enjoyed: Metro 2033 and Last Light Redux (720p45(0.5xres) lowest settings), Tomb raider 2013 (720p45 lowest settings), Grid Autosport (720p60 Low Settings).
I installed ThrottleStop for undervolt and make CPU more efficient and to control temps and fan noise. Went from 320cb to 360cb on cinebenchR15 and reduce temp from 95 to 87. I further put lock to 3GHz max clock so it doesn't become loud and hot because of Turbo 3.6GHz, I don't really need it, also wastes less battery, though I use 2.1GHz profile for super efficiency, and unlocked profile if I really need the extra CPU performance. 4 years running and no problems for me.
Ah yes, My Previous Laptop's iGPU before I upgraded to a 750 Ti, it was decent for me. Since I only played Roblox, Minecraft and CS:GO at 720P low it was some what playable on it. But still better than the GT 710. Btw cool video Krzzyp!

no way you "upgraded" to 750 Ti 😂 IN 2024 ???? bro you do realize that even an RX 580 is so dirt cheap right ? why would you even buy 750 Ti..
@@Eleganttf2 I am daily driving a RX 6600 rn, the 750 ti I upgraded to was in 2022
@@Eleganttf2 your country is not the only country. In my country the RX580 is very expensive. And the GTX 750 Ti is perfectly fine for light/low-spec games. Not everyone is playing triple-A games, some of us enjoy lighter games like Minecraft, Valorant, Roblox, GTA San Andreas, etc..
5:14 yep the exact video memory i use to play with very very low end laptop in 2015-2016 era of gta v with fitgirl repack in 1080p settings
It would be cool to see a video about upgrading the cooling system to see if there's some improvement in games. Nice vid.
did you optimize this laptop before playing on it? because i have a laptop with the same iGPU but an i5 8250u which has the same TDP as this but i can't even sustain 60fps in Valorant at 640x480 in with the lowest settings and all bloom an shadows turned off from the condig files.
Aww man, I used a laptop like that before I switched to my ryzen 5 4600g... And I don't miss it at all!
It's decent for older games (GOG store), like TES 4: Oblivion, or emulators of older consoles, esp. with Tiny10/Tiny11. The biggest issue is that Intel XTU doesn't work on Windows 11 with this CPU, so you'll have to use either Linux, or Windows 10 if you want to lower power consumption/life from battery.
Hey Kryzzp, long time viewer! I really love your videos not just* for the useful insides on the gaming hardware, but mostly for your personality :)
Also wonder if you could maybe recap 2060/2060s in 2024, would be much appreciated
Either way kudos for your work, you're amazing, I love you dude :p
I used this iGPU for 5 years before upgrading to an RTX 4060. The game choice was limited but I still played a lot of games on it.
Im still to this day playing with a uhd 620 graphics on my laptop and i struggle alot playin some games tbh i hv no way of upgrading my laptop to a better one
I actually just got a Lenovo IdeaPad with similar specs from Salvation Army for like just under $100 CAD and its actually in a like new condition. Here’s the specs:
CPU - Intel Core i7-8550u
GPU - Intel UHD 620
Storage - 1TB HDD
RAM - 8GB DDR4
I’m currently looking through all the games that might theoretically work and quite frankly at this point, the only somewhat playable games that could work on it is likely games that came out 2015 and older. 🤷🏻♂️
Bro dats criminal my new lappy is worth 600$ and it has
Cpu - Ryzen 7 7320u
Gpu - Amd radeon graphics
Ram- 8gb LPDDR5
SSD- 512 GB
Idk how u got it so cheap but even my new lappy is so potato dude m depressed about the buy😫😫😭😭
damn memories bro i completed mafia 3 with 11 fps and enjoyed it!
Damn that bird was just chilling on it lol
That same CPU/iGPU in a Dell Latitude 7490 was my travel laptop for a couple years. 17W max. Yeah Valorant is about the 3D limit, though Portal is good and Fortnite used to play well, even a year ago. I got second place using that lil laptop! Tomb Raider '13 is OK with the right settings, even Rocket League played better than your end clip showed but I think I was playing at 720p. Have a newer latitude with Xe now, like 3X as fast lol.
Fortnite is so stutters for me on iris xe performance mode... 😢😢
I remember playing Far Cry 3 on a dell laptop powered by a i3 4005u 1.7ghz hyperthreaded dual core with Intel HD 4400 graphics and 4gb DDR3 single channel RAM. I used to play on similar settings and remember getting close to 24FPS which felt really smooth back then. I think Far Cry 3 would be a decent experience if you can lock it to 30FPS on this system.
I used to have this laptop. Exact specs but it was an hp spectre. My mom got it for me back in 2016, and i had it until 2021. I used to play left 4 dead 2 all the time and light emulation. It surprisingly came with a 4k display too although idek why. Glad i eventually upgraded though because the performance sucks balls.
Watching this on the Dell latitude 7400 i7 8th Uhd 620. Considering that I upgraded from an intel celeron, this isnt so bad. I might need to buy an external graphics card later I guess
Just bought a 5400 for £50 and it plays most wanted at 1080p. Theres so many older games im going to install on that thing.
Please see if you can lift the power limits. On my HP Elitebook 840 G5 with an i5 8350U, I can lift the power limits in Throttlestop to basically unlimited.
Bro i have hp 1030 G4 i7 8gen 16/256 7gb graphic card uhd 620 i ply gta5...fps??
i have that exact same laptop and to be honest, to have optimal results you have to set EVERYTHING at 30.. fortnite is pretty playable setted at 30fps, and 2d games as well...
warzone is not playable
some UE5 games can crash, but overall this can be a ''starter pack'' but if u gonna play 1,500 on this laptop just buy an RTX please
I have Dell XPS 13 and I use lossless scaling to get more fps + with my old ps3 controller so the latency wouldn't be bad
Far Cry 3 with 30-40 fps in this thing is pretty good. I played this game with much worse performance back in the day
I recently upgraded from an old laptop with i3 6006u to 13400f and 1660 super and it's literally the best thing.
Hi, can you tell me which one is better, this or GT710?
both sucks balls
used to play Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition on a Lenovo T440s with i7 4600u & intel HD 4400. Ran fine until they updated the menus and the UI. Unfortunately they never changed the minimum system requirements, where it still says intel HD 4000, but at this point you need I think at least something like 6th Gen integrated graphics to run the game somewhat smoothly.
Still playing on integrated graphics these days, but the Radeon 680m in the Ryzen 6800HS is way more potent then the Intel UHD ones.
Only playing old games anyway. Highest demanding game I play on this is Age of Wonders Planetfall, which runs well at 2560x1600.
Little tips, you can try tu use intel XTU tu allow the cpu to turbo for as long as you want to try and eliminate some cpu bottleneck.
Fun fact: GTA IV, with the tweaked stream.ini and start parameters, using DXVK... it's amazingly playable at 720p, medium texture quality, no shadows and everything else at 35 or higher.
I wonder if would Intel package their A-series GPUs with their CPUs in laptops; I think that it'll be such a huge leap in price-to-performance for those machines. I could guess it'll be around $1000 for a very good laptop/desktop experience with some gaming on the side, especially since the real bottleneck for those GPUs right now is the drivers 🧍🧍
Thank you for playing hollow knight, I've played it, it's my favorite game of all time.
One good thing about laptop lower resolution doesn't look terrible on 15inch screen like 1366x768 or 1600x900
I have dell laptop with iris xe igpu and tried out some older games 2015-2020 it actually playable with 30FPS locked and low mid settings
You should try again downloading an older version of Intel xtu. The newer versions don't work but if you can find an old one from about 4 years ago it should probably work
25:23 that's a great way to demonstrate the input lag 😂
You know, a great thing for old consoles emulators, 90-s and early 2000 games...
UPD: and minecraft, ofc
You can use an older version of Intel XTU and it'll allow you to adjust the core voltage offset. I actually did this just yesterday with my old i5-8300h laptop 👍
i have samee i5-8300h, which version of intel xtu are u using. tell me its number so i can search and download
what version did you have for this lol, cyberpunk 2077 opens normally and i was able to finish the entire game lol ( at 20 fps but whatever ). The worst thing about this igpu is the bottlenecks intel puts on it and the drivers, one version can be COMPLETELY disastrous for performance while another works immensely well.
and ive also been able to play rainbow six siege at 60+ fps haha. very surreal stuff
I used to play apex legends on intel hd5500 and it ran pretty similar to this... fun times tho:))
é um excelente notebook pra trabalhar já tive um, mas pra jogar só jogos bem antigos, no meu caso foi tranquilo só jogava nele CS 1.6, TF2 e L4D2
1 suggestion is that you should use throttlestop to limit cpu clock with these laptops and check temps to get consistence performance. I use it on my macbook pro 2018 (native windows). Before i used it on intel inspiron 5000 10th gen
27:37 Except that with 15 watt CPUs if they share the power budget with their graphics you can often legitimately see a drastic improvement when it comes to a CPU bottleneck by relieving some load off the graphics.
I do highly doubt that those graphics would really pull a significant enough amount of power to do that though...
FWY, I have an XPS 13 2021, the laptop is a huge disappointment, has audio and charging problems, and looking online this seems pretty common, so look that up if you are considering the XPS line (because in the last few years it really fell down hard)
6:57 sounds like "Now the PC restored in the world"
using loseless scaling was the Perfect choice for my UHD 620 + dxvk and Vulkan Configurator Managed to run so much more games..
+ Reshade (Sharpen and Anti aliasing) while using lossless scaling is a game changer
I have that uhd graphics on my hp Elitebook GT1030 X360 Laptop. Might died down owning it on November 2023 trying to play and ready for a better laptop that will game.
Thanks for the video. I'm impressed to be honest so much so you've convinced me to buy a ThinkPad with the same chip for $40 off eBay. Can't get much better value. RDR2 hardly plays well on average desktops, let alone laptops.
That's my current one. I'm hoping to be able to build a new computer soon. Thank you so much for your videos, they are helping me decide on what to go next (most likely a Ryzen 7 5700G and later choose a graphics card)
Glad to help! Thanks for watching and good luck with the new PC :)
I have a spare Rx 5700xt that I don't use
Love your videos man, Its so original, i would love to see your gpu collection lol im a gpu nerd too
You can try to remove the power limit by uninstalling the thermal frame work driver and then install throttlestop to manually set the boost clock so that that clock speeds does not change too often. I tried this on my i5 7200u.
where is thermal framework driver
@@madmehtab should be in your device manager. “Intel thermal framework driver” make sure you uninstall and delete the driver.
If you remove this power limit, it will guarantee your processor will reach 90C or more so be careful. You probably have to install throttlestop too to manually switch turboboost on and off.
@@madmehtabits in the device manager. Uninstall driver there and then delete.
I have a I5-8250u with a uhd620 for about a month seems about right. Also got it for traveling to replace an old 2012 2core laptop
Where did you get a dove?
I use throttle stop to adjust my turbo frequency boost time to max. XTU seems to be out of commission.
this is my graphics card in my main laptop i use for gaming im saving for a pc but ive used this graphics card for a while now and its the best gaming experience ive ever known even though ik its bad its all ive ever used or gotten
This was great, thank you. Any chance you could do the AMD side? Ex. 7950X3D iGPU
Hi, Kryzzp. Can the next Sunday video be the RTX 3050 6gb? In South Africa, it's being sold for R3750 (around $206). That is cheap but I need to know how it performs with today's most popular games before buying it
Same CPU/iGPU in my ThinkPad t490 I use for work. Plays BF2 no problem!
Also, Lossless Scaling from steam is your friend.
The cooling of this laptop is extremely bad. My laptop has an i5 8250u and it performs much better with the igpu (which is also an UHD 620). It can even serve the dedicated gpu (Nvidia mx150) well, no cpu bottlenecks at all.
12:39 - LOL, that cpu's clock even drops below the base freq. Maaaan, that cooling system must be terrible!
Yeah 🤣
Did you see the heatsink? Haha
you will see colors change and little strings come out of the chip meaning extraction of etching chems layer Seperators and even run off or burnt materials. , clean after you see no more chems or colors come out . then paste and ENJOY NITRO out
I have experienced this pc and if u wanted to have fun u should play some old games like gta 4 and cod mw 2 from 2009 and also far cry 2
Im surprised that the plastic didnt melt 😅
Games that i have played AND beat on this gpu with 12 gb ram and i3 7th :
Dark souls 1-3
Elden ring
Sekiro
Batman arkhams (all except knight)
Monster hunter rise
I bought a laptop with Intel UHD 620 or 630 in 2016. It didn't even manage to run games from 2007 on 720p highest settings.
Hey Kryzzp, can you test the Lossless Scaling FG? I heard it's better than AFMF and it can boost FPS by 3X.
Bro I actually played a lot on my 8250U with that exact same igpu, around 5 years ago
can you show use how you record the games with out losing any fps?
My Dell Latitude 5580 had the hd620 and it works perfectly for me. I even run basic games. Ever since I switched to macOS I haven't really used it a ton tho, macOS works MUCH better for my needs. If anything, I'm only keeping the Dell on Windows cus of Windows programs. This laptop is kinda beautiful tho
it really nice to see u test Intel igpu again krypzz❤️❤️
The i7-8565u in that laptop just beats the i7-2600K but still loses to a i7-3770. The Intel UHD 620 is comparable to a GT 640, yes a card that came out 12 years ago.
Also, the CPU is not gonna reach 4.6 GHz, at max 2.5 GHz.
Valorant on 720p low and going into the config file to reduce the UE4 values to 0 helps a ton, I can achieve a solid 110-120 FPS with an i7-1255U
Though when there are more than 3 big ults it drops a bit, like Viper pit, Astra wall, Brimstone orbital strike 😢
zworm, can you try using lossless scaling especially the frame gen and do a comparison?
Would you be able to make more videos with the 4070 please im buying my first PC and i wanna have more information about it and you're my favorite person to watch on game tests
Look at 4070 super. It's worth it to pay a little more.
@@netneutrality2024 im getting a pre built and It has a 4070
Perfect for like waiting at the airport or something like visiting annoying relatives.
i have uhd620 with i5 8250u and even valorant is not playable
Thanks for recommending Far Cry 3, I love it
Oh my god, is it faster vs my smartphone is the question?
What is the price of the amazing notebook?
according to Techpowerup the UHD 620 has 384 GLOPS of theoretical FP32 performance, which would make it slightly weaker than a docked Nintendo Switch 😭
although that's in the i3's, on an i5 the 100 MHz higher clock actually brings the performance to 422 GLOPS and the 150 MHz on the i7 models bring it's to 441, but dawg barely surpassing the Switch ain't something to be proud of 😭😭😭
Was a proud Intel uhd for 4 yrs straight and finally got a rtx 20 series laptop (the difference is INSAne)
