is intel hd 4000 enough to run dolphin

[coaxialgamer]

Hello,
So i just built a computer with parts i bought on ebay, and i dont have a gpu yet.
I was wondering if the intel hd graphics 4000 could run basic gamecube games at full speed or close ( without turning all the settings to max of course) , so i can at least do some gaming on it until i buy a gpu (No fun using hd graphics with an i7 )
Thanks !

You can play the games at native resolution for now

you can play *most* games at native. you're going to have some issues with more graphically demanding games (SMG1/2, FERD, etc)

I have it, it doesn't work correctly in newer versions of the emulator.

On Direct3D backend, you are going to see many randomly colored dots in the game, many models are going to be entirely covered by them.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Super Paper Mario are not going to run properly, with the later entirely refusing to load past the prologue, regardless of the backend.

If you can't afford a better GPU, you will have to use an older version of the emulator. Otherwise you will have to live by these issues.

EDIT: I didn't realize that you are going to buy a newer GPU in all cases. Yeah, in that case, play using the newest revisions, if you encounter massive bugs revert to older versions. Like 4.0-3000 or something.

uh, i have never encountered those issues megadardery. when was the last time you updated your drivers?

Dolphin Verion:5.0-11622
Video Card/GPU:Intel HD Graphics 4000
Intel Video Card Driver Version: 10.18.10.5069

Problem: Use "OpenGL" Backend will lead to many Bugs. Can't run most Wii games.
Workaround: Use "Direct3D 11" Backend seems to solve most of the problems.
