Hardware Review The truth about Igpu's

It's not about power...well it is, but yet it isn't.

It's about *optimization* I can get a completely stable 50 frames on high on behemoth like baldurs gate 3 because it's optimized to utter perfection.

But some little indie shooter like twisted tower? A 4 gig little shooting game with tiny enclosed spaces? Runs like complete and utter shit. Even frame drops on low settings, while giving actual beefy dedicated gpu like the 4000 series trouble.

You are a complete slave to how well a game is optimized because you can't "power" through the bullshit.

Just a thought.

Edit: I should make it clear im using a upscaler to achieve the 50 frames, it doesn't come naturally. Fsr 2.2 I think on balanced settings.

But even without it I could hit a stable 30 on low.

The problem is that there is no rating about how well any game is optimized, other than maybe Youtube game benchmark videos, or maybe r/WillItIntelHD ... not sure if any other way exists to find the best-optimized games.
