Hello Guys,
please i need help on how to optimise the above graphics card for UE4. Below is the spec of my PC
ntel(R) Core™ i5-4310U CPU @ 2.00GHz 2.60 GHz
16.0 GB RAM
INTEL HD GRAPHICS 4400
Windows 10 21H2
There is nothing to optimise. You will need to create scenes with serious limitations.
is it possible to change the graphics card of a laptop
No. There are external enclosures but it hardly ever justifies it. Not for a laptop like this.
Can I get an external GPU for my system, and if yes what type.
You can but it will be more expensive than your current laptop. An enclosure can be had for around $300+ or so and a decent GPU that makes sense in an enclosure would be at least that much, too. Ideally you’d put something more powerful inside. Talking about new stuff here, second-hand can be half price, ofc.
It really only makes sense if you must be mobile and already have a decent laptop to start with and then have extra ooomphs when you are not travelling.
Other than that, it’s a poor investment for most folks. You want to work with a cutting edge engine and you’re trying to cut corners instead.
