It may not ve very powerful but it's definitely more powerful than that. Look at this: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-HD-Graphics-4000-Benchmarked.73567.0.html
On Windows, they get around 30-40 fps with several videogames which render much complex scenes than the ones that yield me 18 or less. > And 60fps is what your panel refresh rate is. I don't get why that should be a limit. There's a GpuTest tool that renders a single big triangle, and this gets around 1000 fps. By the way, it consumes 50% cpu (i.e. one full core), showing that it's not using any hardware acceleration, and that's rendering one triangle. > Not software rendered: [32;01myes[00m > Not blacklisted: [32;01myes[00m > ... Is that reliable? Is there a benchmarking tool that can draw graphics and actually tell me whether all of those feature are being used from the GPU? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1485248 Title: No hardware acceleration out-of-the-box with Intel HD GPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1485248/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
