You can check how many graphics options you have using the Windows Device Manager. See “ A note on AMD cards” at the end of this article. Note: We have identified some AMD/Intel combinations that produce black windows in OpticStudio after carrying out the process that follows. OpticStudio may not default to the most advanced graphics card available due to the Switchable Graphics settings. In the article below, we’ll show you how to find and configure your card so that OpticStudio can make use of it. The add-on card uses more power than the integrated graphics card. Switchable Graphics options are designed to power down the add-on card when a laptop is running on its battery. OpticStudio can make use of advanced graphics cards. Many modern computers have two graphics cards: an Intel version that’s part of the motherboard, and an add-on card that’s often an AMD or NVIDIA brand. In the article below, we’ll show you how to find, update, and configure your card so that OpticStudio can make use of it.Īuthored By Erin Elliott, Don Dickinson Introduction Many modern computers have two graphics cards: an Intel version that’s part of the motherboard, and an add-on card that’s often an AMD or NVIDIA brand. The HD Graphics 4600 can be found on dual- and quad-core Haswell models in the 37 - 57 Watt TDP range.OpticStudio can make use of advanced graphics cards. Thus, the HD 4600 not only matches some dedicated GPUs such as the GeForce GT 620M/630M, but also competes with the fastest integrated AMD GPUs like the Radeon HD 8650G.ĭue to the 22nm 3D Tri-Gate production process, power consumption should be relatively low. This performance boost is achieved by architectural improvements and an increased number of execution units: The GT2 version integrates 20 EUs, compared to 16 EUs for the old HD 4000. In our gaming benchmarks, however, the improvement was only about 30 percent. It also features an improved decoder for 4K videos and the fast Quick Sync encoder.Īccording to Intel benchmarks in 3DMark 11, the HD Graphics 4600 will be up to 60 percent faster than the previous HD 4000. The GPU supports DirectX 11.1, OpenCL 1.2 and OpenGL 4.0. In comparison to the HD 4000, the graphics core has been modified extensively. The base clock can be automatically overclocked using Turbo Boost technology.ĭepending on the processor model, the base and turbo clock rates may differ greatly resulting in varying graphics performance between CPU models. The Intel HD Graphics 4600 (GT2) is a processor graphics card included in some of the Haswell processors of 2013.
