22 Jan 2021 - Graphics card reviewed

Based on current gaming requirements the HD i3 550 is considered one of the weakest cards and wont meet modern AAA game specs. Capable of running games with up to a DirectX 10 requirement.

How many years will the HD i3 550 graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the HD i3 550 in your PC? You should definitely consider replacing this HD i3 550 graphics card, if it is still in your gaming PC.

Whats a good PC graphics upgrade for the HD i3 550? A good upgrade choice for this graphics card today would be the 16 Series GeForce GTX 1660 Super 6GB. For comparison of the 1000 most demanding games around today this suggested upgrade is 4059% better and can meet 809 of their recommended requirements. Alternatively we would suggest getting a R-500 Series Radeon RX 580 8GB, as it can run 728 of the top 1000 demanding game requirements today with 3292% increased graphics performance.

HD i3 550 Game Requirement Analysis

HD i3 550 is the specific version of the 'GMA/Intel Media Graphics Accelerator' that comes with the CPU 'Core i3-550 3.2GHz'. <r>


With no dedicated memory, it uses system memory up to 1 GB on Windows XP and 1.7GB on Windows Vista/7. Unlike the second gen 'Intel HD Graphics 2000/3000', very demanding games might not run at all and only very old games will run on high settings smoothly….
