AMD Ryzen 5 Integrated graphics usage issue

[Doc Hussey]

Just picked up the game, loaded in and I'm sitting at 11fps. Okay, cool, I'll turn down graphical options, no big deal. After cranking everything to lowest and running windowed in 1920*1080, I'm topping out at 16fps at the title screen.
I've tried Vulkan and non, priority switching, nearly everything, but I cannot get any higer FPS. Come to find out, the game isn't accessing the "Shared GPU Memory" at all, just the 512mb of dedicated memory on the chip. https://imgur.com/JCn7sq2
It will max out the dedicated memory and there will be 50mb used in the Shared memory (which I'm assuming is being used by windows processes.
Any ideas?

Your integrated chip is still just an integrated chip, it takes some of your ram but dude, your chip is, to put it blunt, garbage. You can't play a game like Valheim with it, just imagine if you start base building, or fighting enemies, you'll drop to 2 fps.

I'm going to have to disagree Sparky. Ark sits pretty at 25-30 FPS on medium-low settings, shadows off. 7 Days to Die is in the 30-40 range at medium settings, shadows off. Creativerse, Minecraft, Empyrion, Volcanoids, Fallout 4; all of them are running perfectly fine on acceptable graphical fidelity.

Again, you will note that in the image I posted, Valheim is not touching the shared VRAM at all. Every other game I play, Photoshop, Handbrake, Da Vinci Resolve, they all use more than the dedicated RAM to run, sometimes even maxing out the 8gb allocated.

So no, I'm not running NVLinked 3090's here and I know it. The Ryzen 5 5600G performs better than an i9-9900k as a processor, compares to a GTX 750 in terms of a video card. Not the greatest, but not the worst by a long shot.
