Yet what the real-world games results tell us is that one has to dial it to low-quality graphics in order to achieve playable framerates in some games. F1, in particular, is rather nice when paired to a FreeSync screen, but the others all fall below the minimum supported range on budget monitors.
Want to play proper games on a PC? Get a discrete video card.
Rounding out the results, overall PC performance is broadly similar on these budget platforms.
A word on power consumption without a discrete graphics card. The 2400G idled at 24W, ran 2D load at 70W and 3D load at 78W. Those numbers were 23W, 64W and 70W, respectively, for the 2200G. A quick cross-comparison revealed that the Core i3-8100 managed 22W, 56W and 59W in the same tests. In other words, at stock speeds, one could easily run the whole system with a 250W PSU.
