    Older Intel HD IGP

    I need to know something about these two older Intel IGP but does the Intel HD 1000 perform the same as Intel HD 2000? I know one is newer but according to specs the 2000 ends up to perform the same as the older 1000 since the pipeline is a lot less than the 3000.

    I wanted to know if really in true life that do both the 1000 and 2000 perform the same in games.


    Thanks

    Does anyone know? Or is this IGP too old that no one remembers? It's been only like 3 years though.

    Are you referring to the old Intel Arrandale "Intel HD graphics", and no they do not perform near HD 2000 (Sandy Bridge).

    There was "Intel HD Graphics" followed by "HD 2000". The HD Graphics had two versions one with 4 pipes and one with 6 pipes, although both are horrendously underpowered for anything decent, and wouldn't run higher than 800x600 for any 3D game released in the last ten years. Plus it all depends on how well the speed was managed by the CPU under TDP. The "HD Graphics" had a base clock speed of 300 or 350MHz I believe and turbo'd to 1100MHz, where the HD 2000 had a much higher base clock speed of like 800 or 850MHz and turbo'd to about 1300MHz, so even if the GPU throttled, it was still decently faster than the "HD Graphics".

    By comparison the latest HD Graphics 4600 has 20 pipes and runs consistently at 1350MHz for the most part, and is a different architecture altogether.

    If you're referring to the IGP that was on Sandy Bridge CPUs (2nd-gen Core i-Series), that was the Intel HD 3000. The "HD 2000" was not specifically branded as such - I think they still referred to it as Intel HD Graphics. Ivy Bridge received the HD 4000 while Haswell has the HD 4600, Iris, and Iris Pro.
