Hiya, looking to buy a new computer, a NUC, and read somewhere that some a speced with new technic that won't allways play old games.
Does anyone have any input if this rig will play ROR [Intel NUC 11 Enthusiast i7-1165G7 Intel® Core™ i7 16 GB DDR4-SDRAM 512 GB SSD Windows 10]?
Best,
K

I think you are just showing off now...
Yes, Intel Iris XE Graphics from what I can tell won't support DX9 natively, so will have to run through a DX9->DX12 translation with a performance penalty, my guess is you'll be fine, but keep the receipt

It's not like the GPU matters in this game. The base clock is low but those CPUs go quite high in single threaded workloads. Should be ok.
