Hi all, I just preordered my FW16 and currently i have no GPU. I plan to play games like Europa Universalis 5, Mount & Blade: Bannerlord, and PEAK, which can be quite intensive on the GPU, so I wish to ask your recommendations for if I should get just the NPU or also a GPU.
I typically have around a 130 tabs open, for context
I have this config and with the build-in GPU games like Where Winds Meet are playable but graphics settings need to run on low - since I am not a gamer, it is fine for me, but I would certainly go with a dedicated GPU. I think the internal GPU and the CPU is good enough with a lot of tabs (I have about 30-40 and Youtube and a bunch of other apps).
System: AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 Series - Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370

Memory: DDR5-5600 - 64GB (2 x 32GB)

Thx a bought recently too. I not bought a GPU because i don’t want play a lot on it. Just to small games ^^
The best option is try it on the games you regularly play & see how it performs.
The beauty of owning a Framework is if you find you need to add a GPU later for gaming etc then you can.
