How do the Skylake onboard graphics compare to a 7 year old graphics card (Nvidia 260GTX), specifically in Photoshop CC?
I do not game at all, nor do I do any 3D modeling or use any of the Phoshop 3D features. I have been looking for a comparison, but have not been able to find one for this specific application. It looks like the old graphics cards still destroy the onboard graphics in 3D benchmark applications, but I am not sure that is a relevant comparison for 2D GPU accelerated applications such as this.
I would love to get run just the CPU so I don't burn through so much power and continue to heat my room...I am trying to put together an ITX system. The Skylake CPU only system will only draw about 100W under load, whereas my current system draws almost 400W.
