With Intel’s 7th and 8th gen processors, Intel’s iGPU now packs some real power, which allows applications like XSplit VCam, XSplit Broadcaster or XSplit Gamecaster to use Intel’s integrated graphics to offload process intensive tasks which can lead to an overall improved gaming and streaming experience.
On some desktop gaming motherboards or pre-built desktop PC systems with a discrete NVIDIA or AMD GPU, the integrated GPU is sometimes disabled in the BIOS by some manufacturers, but users can easily enable the integrated GPU themselves.
