What are the pros and cons of integrating a graphics card with a motherboard

Motherboard integration is cheap, stable, and there will be no hardware conflicts or anything. However, the performance is relatively low, and there are certain requirements for the memory of the computer.

The integrated one must allocate memory to the graphics card, which will undoubtedly take up the memory of your machine and slow down the machine.

The general integrated graphics card is not as fast and effective as the external display, especially when running large games, it is very clear.

If the economy does not allow it, the integrated graphics card is still worth considering, otherwise buy the external display.

The integrated board depends on what graphics card it is integrated.

Mine is a graphics card with integrated PCI-E.

The performance is good. It takes less than 30 seconds to turn on.

See if your other configurations keep up.

Don't use integrated ones that can make the computer very human.

The advantage is to save money, the disadvantage is that the performance is low, if you use it to watch movies, chat, browse the web, you can still use it.

Excellent: Cost bottom!

Missing: Performance bottom!

Integrated graphics cards are generally cheap and low performance, but now there is a big change, and this can be seen on laptops. So now in general, the gap between integrated graphics cards and discrete graphics cards is decreasing.

It mainly depends on what your computer is used for, if it is 100% enough for study and ordinary office, but if it is used for large-scale 3D games and animations and games, it will not work.

Integrated Graphics: Pros:

We don't have to plug in an external graphics card.

Integrated graphics cards have the advantages of low quality, good compatibility and low upgrade costs.

Disadvantages: The integrated graphics card does not have independent video memory, it occupies part of the memory capacity as video memory, which can affect the performance of the computer in some aspects;

Although the integrated graphics card can be upgraded at a low cost, it is troublesome. To upgrade the integrated graphics card, the motherboard BIOS must be updated

The performance of integrated graphics cards is generally worse than that of mid-to-high-end discrete graphics cards. (Of course, there are exceptions, such as Dell's desktop computers, many computers still use integrated graphics, but the performance exceeds many discrete graphics cards).

Discrete Graphics: Pros:

The discrete graphics card has a separate video memory and does not occupy system memory.

Technologically leading, providing better display effect and running performance.

Moreover, the independent graphics card can be composed of multiple graphics cards inside the computer, and has powerful image processing capabilities.

Cons: 1power consumption, as well as heat dissipation;

2.A large amount of heat is generated, and if the heat dissipation is not timely, it is easy to cause a crash;

3.**High, relatively high with integrated graphics**.

Extended information: Discrete graphics card, referred to as independent graphics card, referred to as independent graphics card in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, refers to an independent board, which needs to be plugged into the corresponding interface of the motherboard. Discrete graphics cards are divided into built-in discrete graphics cards and external graphics cards.

A discrete graphics card is a graphics card that exists in the form of a discrete board and can be freely plugged and unplugged on a motherboard with a graphics card interface. Discrete graphics cards have separate video memory that does not occupy system memory, and are technologically ahead of integrated graphics cards to provide better graphics and performance. As an important part of the computer host, the graphics card is very important for people who like to play games and work in professional graphic design.

In the past, the first manufacturers of graphics chips for civilian graphics cards mainly included ATI and NVIDIA.

Integrated graphics is a special type of graphics card. Integrated graphics cards generally do not have video memory, but use a part of the main memory of the system as video memory, and the specific amount is generally automatically and dynamically adjusted by the system as needed.

Obviously, if you use an integrated graphics card to run a lot of memory-intensive space, the impact on the entire system will be more obvious, and the frequency of system memory is usually much lower than that of a discrete graphics card, so the performance of an integrated graphics card is inferior to that of a discrete graphics card. Motherboards that use chipsets with integrated graphics cards do not have to use integrated graphics cards, and motherboards can completely shield the integrated graphics cards, but for cost reasons, this is rarely done.

In addition, some integrated graphics chipsets can also support separate graphics slots, such as Intel's G-series chipsets, while others no longer support dedicated graphics slots, such as Intel's GL-series chipsets.

A motherboard with a graphics card chip integrated by the motherboard northbridge chip is called an integrated motherboard, and the graphics card chip integrated by the northbridge is the core of the integrated graphics card, and the core and video memory together form the integrated graphics card.
