Testing at high quality settings 1920x1080
Although the Core i7 5775C shows an impressive result for its class at 720P, at 1080P the game still plays better on AMD.
Testing of the video memory consumed by the game was carried out by the MSI Afterburner program. The results were taken on Core i 7 5775C and AMD A10-7870K systems at 1920x1080 resolutions with high quality settings.
Testing at high memory GPU quality settings
At a resolution of 1280x720, the APU video memory consumption is 700 MB of video memory, and at a resolution of 1920x1080 - 800 MB.
