Integrated graphics computers

Integrated graphics

— video cards built directly into the processor (less often — into the motherboard) and not having their own dedicated memory: memory for video processing is taken from the general "RAM"; The main advantages of such modules are low cost, low power consumption, minimal heat release (which does not require special cooling systems), and extremely compact dimensions. On the other hand, the performance of this type of graphics is low: it is enough for simple everyday tasks like web surfing, watching videos and undemanding games, but for more serious purposes it is still desirable to have discrete video adapter in the system. And the fact that integrated systems take up part of the system RAM during operation does not contribute to performance either.
