Summary
Intel started HD Graphics sales 1 April 2012. This is Generation 7.0 architecture desktop card based on 22 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at office use.
Compatibility-wise, this is an integrated video card. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 35 Watt.
It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at
of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti.

Compatibility, dimensions and requirements
Information on HD Graphics's compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).
Interface | PCIe 1.0 x16 | |
Width | IGP |
Memory
Parameters of memory installed on HD Graphics: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors don't have dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM.
Memory type | System Shared | |
Maximum RAM amount | System Shared | of 128 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
Memory bus width | System Shared | of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
Memory clock speed | System Shared | of 21000 (GeForce RTX 3090 Ti) |
Video outputs and ports
Types and number of video connectors present on HD Graphics. As a rule, this section is relevant only for desktop reference video cards, since for notebook ones the availability of certain video outputs depends on the laptop model.
Display Connectors | No outputs |

- Passmark
- 3DMark Fire Strike Graphics
Passmark
This is probably the most ubiquitous benchmark, part of Passmark PerformanceTest suite. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.
Benchmark coverage: 26%
3DMark Fire Strike Graphics
Fire Strike is a DirectX 11 benchmark for gaming PCs. It features two separate tests displaying a fight between a humanoid and a fiery creature seemingly made of lava. Using 1920x1080 resolution, Fire Strike shows off some realistic enough graphics and is quite taxing on hardware.
Benchmark coverage: 13%
