I'm gonna stop playing games that need a dGPU. If it doesn't run on intel graphics or an APU I DON'T WANT IT!!
>poorcheck>thirdiecheck>pedocheckyep, it's a /g/ bait thread
>>108061162What games could i possibly want to play on a 6800xt
>>108061120You are aware that an AMD has an apu that has 4060 level performance right?So your statement is meaningless
>>108061175w-which? I'm on a Ryzen 5 5600 now
>>108061202Radeon 8060S iGPU)
>>108061215god i'm really living in the past with my AM4 shit
you at least have a strix halo right?
>>108061120I have a Ryzen 8000 APU. Shit is so good. I can play all my games with reasonable settings without a dGPU and I have zero interest on getting anything more resource heavy than Elden Ring.
>>108061120All modern games suck. Modern APUs can play every game that matters.
>>108061266RandomGaminginHD played BL4, the worst optimized game from 2025 on integrated graphics
graphics cards were a mistake
>>108061162Americans can't afford shit either thanks to the orange jew
>>108061120Many games can play on integrated graphics, but will run at low resolution, low details, or poor framerates. Why live with that when even a low end dGPU will do much better?Or is this an "I bought a laptop and it kind of sucks" cope thread?
>>108061379So I can theoretically run modern games on an Intel atom cpu from 2009?You are just retarded, man
>>108061379No, i'm actually using a 6800XT right now, but i only ever play doom 2, emulated PS2 and older or indie games. I feel like a retard for having a 6800XT.
>>108061396No. Where did I say or imply that? You can run a surprising number of older games very well on modern integrated graphics, especially AMD's, and many but not all newer games on low settings and 720p. New AAA games are basically a non-starter on anything integrated, but every year the AAA games are lamer than the last. Indy games are where it's at, and those are much more likely to run on integrated graphics.
>>108061461Given the market right now, you should consider selling that 6800XT and either using your integrated graphics or buying a cheaper used GPU if you have a CPU without any.
>>108061120what do you have? modern apus can run anything that is worth.>>108061215hm isnt that laptop only? i havent following up amd, i thought their strongest apu was the ryzen 7 8700g.>>108061461i feel like im wasting my apu away too for i dont game, but it is what it is.
I fucking swear no one is even making games worth buying a graphics card to play. The last few that I was actually excited to play and see were fucking Doom, Witcher3, and Cyberpunk 2069 and all those are old as shit now. Everything made now has to be shit so it can run on a Switch 1
>>108061524I have a 5600g i'm not using. I'm on a ryzen 5 5600 + 6800xt system currently. I could lower my power usage to like a quarter and sell my GPU and still play all my gaymes.
>>108061120Bratty little bitch, you need rape correction...
>>108061524It's a mobile chip but there are mini PCs with it
>>108061120We should all go back to software rendering, or to the least support it by default as a backend, tsoding-sama is right.Cute Victorique btw.>>108061328Von Neumann architecture was a mistake, we wouldn't need GPU if we all used heavily parelellized Harvard architecture.
>>108061120all the good games are 20+ years old
>>108061540whoa. thats my cpu, i dont have any graphics card because i dont game but when i had steam i could play indie stuff just fine. exquisite mix you got there, 5600 with and without video, do you plan on keeping both? you could sell the 5600 for a better ryzen within am4 and keep the apu if you graphic card ever fails you.
>>108061120All good games (i.e VNs) run on integrated graphics
laptop intel arc 140v and the upcoming ones are already pretty good and can use their own fake frames shit if you so wish. I think the world is devolving and we all will be using 8gb cards in the future. I wish my x230 could run classic wow better.
>>108061120Isn't the new intel igpu pretty good?
Nuclear Cope lmao
I'm at this boat right now. My current specs are:>CPURyzen 7 1700>GPUGTX 1060 6GiBThe only reason I'm thinking about upgrading is because of the VRAM of modern games, but the game I've played the most recently was factorio... Sure, with mods with all the sprite library into memory will overpower the GPU and cause it to stutter, but I can just lower it to minimum and only use 2GiB of VRAM.I'm not sure it is worth it, and I've been looking more and more into just emulating older games that I haven't had the time to play, or want to replay (mostly PS1/PS2 games, and a few GC since I've never had one).This config is fine for most everything nowadays, and with the price of everything inflating more than a latex fursuiter in a kinkcon, I'm seriously thinking about just replacing shit if it breaks instead.
>>108061120I already do that.
>>108061698You can't play PS3/360 on that.You can't even max out some older games
>>108061711PS3 has zero games except souls
>>108061711I've played demon souls and drakengard 3 on it on rcps3. It works fine.>Can't even max out some older games...Yeah, so?
>>108061720It has 27 exclusives that are good stuck on that platform
>>108061736Resistance, uncharted,god of war, infamous,metal gear, motor storm...
>>108061636true (i dont play them).
All objectively good games game work without dGPU. If you're game needs a dGPU it's a shit game. Don't bother responding if you disagree, your wrong opinion is not needed.
>>108061771GoW3 ran fine, too. I haven't tried MGS4, still need to check the other titles you've mentioned, but I don't really care that much about them.
>>108061366>can't afford few grand with $10k monthly income...
>>108061783GoW3 ran fine doubt it
>>108061799It did though? Very small stutters, I've only played a couple of hours of it. I'm at work and I can't record it for you to see, but it runs fine.RCPS3 is fucking magical nowadays, mate.
>>108061809You will hit single digits on that thin in certain parts your CPU is trash
>>108061781>you're game
>>108061822>trashIt's almost 10 years old... Ofc it wouldn't be that good for today's performance numbers. It is on par with a 8300G in terms of multicore performance, which rcps3 uses.I might get performance issues, sure, but it runs stuff fine.
>>108061636What VNs can you recommend?
>>108061876Not emulation
>>108061886*sigh*Sure buddy, whatever you have to say. It's trash and I can't play Pinball Space Cadet. Let alone the fact that I play modern games on this machine and finished CP2077 on it, and run RCPS3 without major issues.
>>108061905You have a great PC anon, you can play all the great games. Maybe not at 4k 240fps but you don't "need that" anyway!
>>108061120The only games worth playing were released before 2020
>>108061120>>108061266What should I play? I've been out of gaming for quite a long time. Crysis 2 may be the last game I played. I do some retrogaming now and then but that doesn't count. I have zero interest in getting a gaming rig, so I'd be playing on a 11th Gen i5 ThinkPad mostly. Please give me something good.
>>108061948DOOM WADs
>>108061120There's a bunch of high quality games you can play that don't require a dGPU.>>108061162Nothing bait about asking for info about software that doesn't require high-end PC parts.
waiting for ryzen 9000g/ai400 desktop/whatever the fucki got my ram ready
>>108061948Depends. What do you like to play? Anon here suggested Doom WADs: >>108061954 - that would be my pick since you've mentioned Crysis 2.Doom is probably the most modded game ever, and will probably be the most modded game ever for a long time.I personally play Factorio on my machine, and I could even play Satisfactory on it (although with an i5-11th gen and iGPU I had to reduce everything to minimum and run it on 720p).Emulation (up to PSX/PS2) is good, too, but you've already mentioned retro-gaming, so yeah.Other option is perusing indie titles for something, but a list of what games you play/used to play would be a good start.
>>108061985>although with an i5-11th gen and iGPUIs that what you're running? Intel igpu? Hit us with a fetch, Anon!
>>108062060
>>108062020Yup. It's my work laptop. I only have Factorio and Binding of Isaac Rebirth on it, since I sometimes have to "hurry up and wait" or have to kill time on the go.It's a V14 G2 ITL. Kinda sucks that it only has 1 SODIMM slot, but I've bought a 16GiB for it a couple of years ago. It's pretty good for what it is.
>>108061822>your CPU is trashcalm down updooter, this is still an octa-core processor. plenty of power there.>>108061985plenty of cool indie stuff around, if he's into it, he could hit some vns too.
>>108062065>Debian 12Very baste...You don't "need more". That PC can play loads of ebin games.
>>108062098Kek, yeah... As "bad" as this config is, I'm still astonished that it managed to run Satisfactory, even though it was on low settings, 720p and 50% render resolution.Back in the early 2010s, an iGPU means you couldn't play anything, since you didn't have either Hardware T&L or Pixel/Vertex Shader. It's amazing how far they've become.I remember having to use SwiftShader to emulate it, running games that required it at 640x480 with single-digit frames per second. Good times.
>>108061120did you know that you can play stellaris on intel fucking hd 4000?
>>108061961
>>108061120Play SuperTuxKart! amazingly fun game actually
I am firstie in EuropeI just want an energy efficient and portable PC that I can use for everything and Macs aint the thing here
I have been using my rog ally x as my main pc docked and to be honest I forget it's not even my old pc while using it. I am planning to sell my gaming pc, the rare times I get the urge to play games I just undock and play in bed. As long as you don't use windows you can do some pretty intensive stuff no problem
>>108062541the only downside is the joysticks start flashing if i put it to sleep so i just power it off at night. you would be surprised how little you need for productivity or even gaming, at least i was
I thought>wereached a conensus that old games are better than new games?because picrel alone gives you a backlog long enough to keep you busy for years, and it should run fine on toasters if you aren't trying to giga upscale the games
>>108061636Kind of agree, I was going to upgrade until realizing I'm using mine for VNs half the time. Current GPU prices are shit anyway.
>>108061120I came to this conclusion 15 years ago and have never regretted it.
>>108061162>goycheck>faggotcheck>obesedouble check
>>108063093Yup, pretty much. Most games from PS2 are at least good. Some of them are great.Some from NES all the way to PSX are great. All in all, you have probably at least 5k games to choose from from US/EU library alone, and from those at least 200 of them are in the "must play" category.>>108062020Here's the fetch from my home PC. Yeah, I know... Windows 11... I'm not the only user on this PC, and sending everyone to linux would be a bigger hassle than just keeping supporting this. I am trying Debian 13 on a separate SSD that I have, though. It works great!... Except for the Nvidia drivers, because Pascal is the last one without the open-source ones that most distros support, so I need to manually install the proprietary ones. From what I've tried, though, it works just as good under Debian compared to Windows.>>108061886Alright, I'm home. Here's the fetch from my home PC. I have RPCS3 and currently have Drakengard 3, GoW Collection, GoW3 and NIER pre-loaded. Pick a game, I'll record it and send it here, with the FPS overlay to show you if you want to.
>>108061266play a greg based modpack or factorio like the real autist you are
>>108063661Funny you say that... I suggested Factorio here earlier lmao.Speaking of: Of those hours, ~100 was in the last week or two alone.
>>108061175my 7600 stutters with uma musume in 1080
>>108061162trvke
>>108061954>>108061985>>108062067Will try that Doom and Factorio. Also I wouldn't mind playing indie games, just would love something that captivates me, and doesn't requiere a gaming pc.
>>108063677currently on nomifactory, already sunk 600h in it, still don't know if im staying on greg or trying factorio after>2khbless your autism anon
>>108061162fpbp
>>108063725Nice picks.For indies that I've played, There's, well, Factorio, The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, Bloodstained (same director from Castlevania SotN), Cuphead, Dead Cells, FTL: Faster than Light, Gunfire Reborn, Hades, Hollow Knight, A Hat in Time, Last Epoch, Muse Dash, Nine Sols (highly recommended chink game, similar to Hollow Knight), OneShot, Paranautical Activity, Satisfactory (3D Factorio, but that one might be difficult to run on an iGPU, but it is possible), Risk of Rain 2, Torchlight, Vampire Survivors and a few others that I can't remember nor find on my Steam library right now...Anyways, depends a lot on what kinds of games you like playing. Just be careful with Factorio, though... You sit down to play for 15 minutes and 4 hours go by.>>108063728Kek, thanks, anon. It's both a great and horrible game, depending on perspective.
>>108061120I don't care what others say, but you are right. Based take. dGPU's are a weird trend, people started on intel graphics, consoles don't use a fucking dGPU, Macbooks, good thinkpads, phones etc. dGPU's belong to AI data centers, servers, cloud services or in your fucking PC at work. Those ugly things get bigger, more power hungry, loud and warm. I'm so happy that AMD and Nvidia gave up on (consumer) dGPUs.
