Laptop gaming on low specs : ) Intel Hd 3000

[Chumpy]

Specs

Laptop Asus A53E

Intel i5 @ 2.4ghz with turbo boost

Intel hd 3000 graphics

8gb ram

DEFFINATELY NOT A GAMING RIG. Seems to love scource engine though. : )

NO PROBS AT ALL. Game runs 29-60fps. No AA of course hd 3000 cant do anti aliasing, unless u want 5-10fps gameplay. I run the game in 1024x768. I use the control panel from intel and turn slider bar to best quality. The integrated Intel HD 3000 has its own Anisotropic Filtering settings in its own control panel. SO I TURN ALL THOSE OFF IN GAME. My settings for shadow detail are set to very low. All this does is render the shadows in a low res and only shows real time shadows at a small distance. Texture and model detail are high. The game is very playable with this system if you know what is actually eating up your pc power potential.

-Anti aliasing with intel hd 3000 integrated graphics kills your FPS. It can do Filtering just fine if you use the intel control panel.

Thumbs up Devs !!! Fu-ing glad I can run this above 30fps mostly.

@ syafiz - Hard to optimize for everyone. It could be any issue, might be the game conflicting with your hardware or something etc. Could be problem with your pc. Could be a lot of things. If u have a laptop what gpu does it have? Is I integrated? post specs plz and I will help.

I got the Intel HD graphics 2000. I can agree with the fact that it works really good on source engine(dont know for Insurgency). But I dont know what you mean with: 'The integrated Intel HD 3000 has its own Anisotropic Filtering settings in its own control panel. SO I TURN ALL THOSE OFF IN GAME'. So you put the Anisotropic Filtering on bilinear or trilinear?

[Chumpy]

YES. Turn EVERYTHING TO LOWEST IN GAME. The game seems to auto default back to certain settings so each tome u open the game it is good idea to check the graphics options.

Use the intel hd control panel slider bar In the HD graphics control panel. Set it to far right, which is quality. Then in game you can try turning up certain settings one at a time. Such as texture detail, effects etc. But DONT USE THE IN GAME AA OR AF OR FXAA. The HD Graphics suck and cannot do this and perform well. You will have to cope with a low res such as 1024x768 or maybe in your case 800x600 resolution. SAD BUT TRUE


The integrated Intel HD 3000 has its own Anisotropic Filtering settings. Turn the custom settings off/ Un tick in the control panel. Just use the slider bar and set to quality. If you slide it all the way to the left, which is performance. All games look like crap. Nintendo 64 graphics. Also try Application optimal mode which is below the slider bar in the control panel.


You have control settings ( In Windows) Named Intel graphics media control panel. If you open it and choose advanced mode. You will have options. Click 3D on the left side tab.

In Insurgency graphics options, turn off FXAA and filtering off. HD graphics cannot do aliasing for garbage.

I am not sure if the HD 2000 has the same type of control panel as the HD 3000. But if you have installed the display drivers you should have a control panel for your HD 2000. Integrated means it is part of the CPU. IT IS NOT A SEPERATE CHIP. It uses the cpu to do all graphics and media. So I say again ONE CHIP... Being the CPU and GPU combined into one socket.

what brand is your laptop? Post the model name displayed on the bottom of your laptop.

I noticed that the drivers for my hd 3000 downloaded from the intel site where much better in certain games. Especially source engine. Gained 3-7 fps. The drivers from the Asus website where different. Try both. Find your laptop brand\manufacturer. Example I googled

"asus support"
and downloaded the driver for graphics card from there. It was a much larger file than the driver for the hd 3000 on the intel site. The drivers are obviously different in some way.

I have Intel HD3000, Corei5, 8 gigs of ram in an X220. Can't get over 13 fps while playing insurgency and everything set to low, 1024x768. How do you set multi-core rendering and paged pool memory? Also disable/low?
