Integratet i3 4130 vs discrete GT610

[fehu]

I need to choose the best for gaming between the i3 4130 and the GT610.
Ok I know that both are inadeguate, but need to know what is best and by how much.
The gt 610 is so old that I'm having an hard time finding the same benchmarks to compare

I think the first question should be what type of gaming are you looking at? Either one isn't really going to perform very well in modern titles on anything over lowest settings. If you're focusing on Candy Crush then you'll be ok

Anno 2070 benchmarks both and the GT 610M comes up as 28% less performance than the Intel HD 4000.

In COD: MW3 the GT 610M is 10% faster.

In BF3 the GT 610M is 24% slower.

Both are about equal in FIFA 12 with the HD 4000 being 4% faster.

In F1 2011 the GT 610M is marginally faster by 7%.

Deux Ex: HR the GT 610M is slower by 12%.

In Crysis 2 the GT 610M is slower by 24%.

Mafia 2 the GT 610M is slower by 13%.

In StarCraft 2 the Intel HD 4000 is 2% faster than the GT 630M so that means it should be faster than the GT 610M by a wide margin.

Considering that the HD 4000 is only 6% slower than the GT 630M in Metro 2033, the HD 4000 is by default faster than the GT 610M.

WoW is a tie.

to be fair the 610M have lower clocks,

but also the i3 4130 uses the HD 4400 not HD 4000

HD 4400 from the i3 is clearly faster on 3dmark, found this on google for the 610

compare the 3dmark11 to mobile HD 4400 is already lower, now desktop 4400 is going to score more.

but it's not impossible that the 610 could work better with some games,
