What are "high-end integrated and mid-range GPU cards" for JRVR in 2024?

haggis999:
In normal circumstances, I run Media Center on a Windows 11 workstation that has an RTX 3070 GPU, which appears to run fine with a 65" OLED TV using the JRVR 'Quality Preset'.

However, I am now intending to buy a new Windows 11 laptop. This will occasionally be used for MC with a digital projector and I would appreciate some guidance on what GPU specification I should be looking for to get decent JRVR performance. The JRVR Balanced Preset is described as good for "high-end integrated graphics and mid-range dedicated graphics cards", while the Quality Preset is intended for "faster dedicated graphics cards".

My problem is that I don't know how those descriptions translate to the available GPU options in 2024. What currently counts as high-end integrated graphics and mid-range dedicated graphics cards as far as JRVR is concerned?

I think you need to give more detail as it depends what you are trying to achieve

e.g. upscaling dvd to 4k can take quite some horsepower

slerch666:
Most modern GPUs accelerate 4K upscaling, so asking JRiver what is a would detail what "high end" means isn't unreasonable.

Would be nice if there was something in the Wiki that indicated, if you turn on X, you should have a discrete GPU or indicate, expect this kind of hit to system resources for this kind of quality so it is easier to understand what the impact, visual and CPU/GPU, is for the user.

I would only be playing rips of my Blu-rays, but don't have access to a 4K projector and therefore have no need for any upscaling.

So you just playing 1080p content to a 1080p display? Not sure there is much for it to do in that case
