Seems like the best performing option, not sure why you’d want this though. Just go with bigger GPU if you want to play higher performing games, or stick to the Intel one for media playback/transcoding.
There was supposedly a Flex line up of Intel cards, but I can’t find those anywhere. And there’s also this particular GPU (which I also can’t find?):
Transcoding would be an almost continuous workload, and some light game streaming as well.
Immich would probably use it for its ML Model as well.
The reason I don’t want to focus on the iGPU is simply because:
The chipset might not have one, or might have a very weak one.
Since the CPU might be under load due to other stuff, also running its iGPU might heat it up even more (as is the case for AMD APUs ime)
) which is the most powerful single slot card you can get (factory fitted). But if you decide to go with nerdware coolers, it opens up pathways to [RTX A2000 12GB](’
Go for the dual slot , Low profile RTX 4060. Has a 115w TDP and will excell at all of the above mentioned tasks. You can have one at <30k new
It can transcode well.
Do great gaming at 1080p .
And simple ML inferencing with 8gb
If I wanted to go for dual slots, there are really many options. I can’t go above physical limitations of single slots as of now. So there’s no point looking at those cards.
And again, if I were to go for dual slot or full size dual slot cards, I wouldn’t have to ask since I could pick basically any card.
