Intel UHD 620

[TheQuarterQid]

Anyone know if there's a chance C&C can run on a laptop boasting the awesome force of an integrated graphics card by the name of Intel UHD 620?

I very much doubt that. It needs 2 GB of vRAM minimum. Not to mention it's probably more demanding as well.

Blast. Ok, thank you!

You can always try it and refund if the game doesn't work the way you expected (Steam accepts refunds under 2h of playtime)

Might work if you can find a way to increase the VRAM, it would only be virtual VRAM of course, look it on Google. Install on an SSD if you possibly can.

Integrated graphics uses System ram for Vram usually, if you have some 8 gig of memory it could work; however, the game needs DirectX 11 support. You could probably still run it without DirectX 11 support, but others' complaints indicates the menu bar will not be present; you could, if you wanted to, play the game solely with keyboard shortcuts.

I am able to pull 100+ fps at 1080p on a 7+ year old laptop running a GT 750m so this game isn't demanding at all. Integrated graphics have come a long way and yours is still technically faster than the minimum requirements, so I think there's a decent chance it'll play fine.

I"m running it just fine on an Intel HD 520, 16GB RAM, i5-6300u

It's working like a charm. Got ~30-40fps in 1440p on a core i5-7200U with integrated HD620. But the CPU and iGPU are running on 100% then (still no thermal throttling here) so i switched manually over to the dedicated nvidia 940mx so i can use my second screen for other stuff.
Running on the dedicated GPU the CPU is chilling at around 20-30%, GPU at around 40-60%.

Playing on an Asus Zenbook UX310U.

Probably fine actually, just try on a low resolution if you have framerate problems.

I found out I have a dedicated card on this laptop, too. Can't figure out how to switch it. All the tutorials and how-tos I see have a different version of the AMD graphics setting app. So, oh well. Thank you all for your responses. I might still give it a whirl and if it doesn't work, do what 3D master suggested and return it. Of course, I'm getting a little hope with the recent replies.

Dude just download the latest drivers for whatever card you have. If it is a newer card it will be whatever the latest Radeon drivers are. That should update the control panel as well.
