Integrated graphic card or not?

Do you think that is required to have Integrated graphic card with +10 bots? I know that priority is Ram and CPU, but what with graphic card?

I wouldn't bother gaming with an integrated graphics card.

Hi, Mugenji77,

We agree with Florida. Integrated graphics cards might work for playing one instance of the game manually, on modest graphics settings.

Basically, integrated graphics are just a technique manufacturers use to meet certain (low cost) price-points and still say "our product plays games". There is a secondary purpose of 'saving power' (on laptops) when high-performance graphics are not needed—like those times you're just reading email or surfing the web.. Generally speaking, integrated graphics are inadequate for anyone halfway serious about playing games.

If you plan to run multiple copies of a game and bot, you will most certainly need a dedicated graphics system.

cheers,

I tried integrated, it works, but bots are laggy, you should get
- cheapest dedicated GPU
- with GDDR5 (not DDR3)
- if possible with 2GB GDDR5 but 1GB should be fine with low settings too
- make sure its current generation not some old generation

AMD Radeon R7 250 or higher 1GB - 2GB GDDR5 ($90)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 or higher 1GB - 2GB GDDR5 ($100)

I have a GTX 670 2GB card and can run 6+ WoW instances at 60 FPS no issue. Card is like $330 at the time I purchased however.
