Hi there i recently build a computer comprising of these parts

CPU - i3 6100
GPU - i think integrated motherboard graphics
MOBO - Asus H110M-E
PSU - 550w In Win GreenMe PSU (80+)
RAM - 1x8gb 2133mhz Kingston ram
SSD - 128gb ADATA SSD
CASE - Deepcool tesseract
OS - Win 7 32 bit

Now i know a few problems with this build and the main problem i have with it is i dont know how to activate the Intel HD 530 graphics that come with the CPU, my motherboard has its own graphics and comes with a measly 32mb graphics memory.. i need desperate help activating my HD 530, the colours are HORRIBLE and everything is so slow please help.

Thanks in advance :)

The motherboard doesn't have own GPU, it is using the HD530 (GT2).

The problem with the HD530, is that it doesn't have dedicated graphics memory or eDRAM cache and has to access the main memory.

The exact performance of the HD Graphics 530 depends on various factors like TDP, L3 Cache, memory speed and maximum clock rate of the specific model.

It can basically hold it's own against a dedicated GF920, so if your gaming, it's not a good choice.

You have of course, installed the latest drivers from Intel to as you say "activate" the features of the HD530?

well your motherboard definitely doesnt have its own onboard graphics....unless i've been missing something all along. it has support for onboard graphics but its actually the CPU that has the GPU. you need to make sure you have downloaded and installed the latest intel HD graphics driver. just google "hd 530 driver" and you should be able to find it quite quick. install it up and let us know what happens...if you havent done this already.
 


Why thank you very much :) this really helped
