Hi thanks for the link I check out that video and it's almost impossible to tell what's going on in it you can't read any of the text on the captured screening so you can't really tell video devices doing what so if I can tell

Probably just can say with the 5700 G just because I can't tell for sure whether the card is the worst to run in conjunction with or standalone

Would be great to the actually see some specs or some answer from our buddies at AMD yeah that'll happen

On another note I would've really liked to have him say what the game he playing was, it looks kinda cool and I want to play it

Yea i had to watch the video twice to get it. He is just running 3dmark its a benchmarking tool.

at the end of the video the 7950 scored 1974 GPU and 7734 CPU (left video)

The internal GPU scored 1424/6869 respectively. (right video)

So the 7950 is faster than the internal GPU.

The link the guy is giving below is a nicer comparison website. userbenchmark.

The guy below is saying you should get a faster GPU if possible. So you have some room for upgrades in the future.

The 7950 doesnt have official support anymore for new games. There are unofficial drivers and i dont know where to get them from exactly.

This site that compares various hardware to each other compares the HD 7950 and 5700G Vega 8 IGPU: https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-RX-Vega-8-Ryzen-iGPU-vs-AMD-HD-7950/m441833vs2160

Generally a GPU card will always beat a IGPU mainly because it has move vRAM then a IGPU and can do more things than a IGPU.

But today's latest AMD IGPUs are basically as good as a Budget or middle ground GPU card in some instances. Depending on which GPU card you are comparing the IGPU to.

Went to this bottleneck that showed how much a CPU or GPU will bottleneck using your hardware: https://pc-builds.com/bottleneck-calculator/result/17J05f/1/general-tasks/1920x1080/

From the results the HD 7950 will have significant bottlenecking with the 5700G installed.

Here are the results for 1920x1080, 2k & 4K Resolutions:

So I would suggest getting a more powerful newer GPU card so that it won't bottleneck so much with your Ryzen processor.
