I've read here and on the BI site itself they recommend \ (require maybe?) your setup have "Intel HD Graphics" and hardware acceleration and QuickSync .
Google searching a bit about that left me a little confused.
It appears there are many variations of "HD Grahpics" like 450, P4000, 4400,etc etc.
So which is required for BI and is this something that can be updated?
Is QuickSync separate or part of the chipset? How would I know is a build has it?
Also not all of them appear to have hardware acceleration?
People recommend the "i7" chipset with various models...like the "i7-6700"...but even that seems to have various versions like the i7-6700HQ or i7-6700T or TE or K.
When looking at computer specs I usually only see "i7-6700", so how do I know which version it has?
In searching for information about "HD Graphics", I've run across the newest thing..."Iris Graphics"...
I've read, "The company claims its new Intel "Iris" Graphics, embedded in upcoming Haswell CPUs, can offer double or triple the performance of the Intel HD Graphics 4000 "
Do I wait I hold out for a chipset or whatever that will include "IRIS" if it will be so much better...can BI even use it?
BI site also recommends having "nVIDIA graphics adaptor for efficient screen display"...not sure what that is.
...Does any of this even matter? If I get any computer with an i7-6700 something will it have all the video requirements needed for BI to run as best possible?
Am I way over-thinking this?
