Games Tests
Gaming is something that we wish we had more time for in this review, as is one of the most exciting elements that this product offers. We plan to dedicate more time to games testing on AMD's Raven Ridge platform in the future, but for now here is a brief glimpse at what this APU can offer.
As we can see here a lot of graphical settings, need to be turned down to offer playable framerates at 1080p, though easy to run titles like Overwatch can be played at high framerates using the correct settings.
Looking at the specifications of the 2400G, we can see that its Vega graphics component can offer performance that is similar to an Xbox One, at least on paper. This level of performance means that users will likely need to reduce their games to a sub-1080p resolution in more modern titles to have a good gameplay experience. This is something that we plan to investigate further in the future, as these APUs could act as a great entry point into PC gaming.

HDMI 2.0? I got a HDMI only 4K TV. The 2200G will be the cheapest solution by far, that supports hdmi 2.0. The only native alternative is 1030/rx550, which is almost alone the cost of the 2200G.Quote

HDMI 2.0 will be down to what your motherboard supports, as some AM4 motherboards only have HDMI 1.4 as far as I am aware.Quote

"AMD Ryzen 3 2200G & Ryzen 5 2400G
ASUS Prime Z370-PLUS
G.Skill Flare X 3200MHz memory
Corsair RM1000i
Corsair MP500 512GB
Corsair H110i GT
Windows 10"
That probably should be x370-PLUS, Z370-PLUS? Anyway, i missed it down there, so thanks for answering.
As for what motherboards supports, the specs are a mess:
X370 XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM
"-1 x HDMI 2.0 port, supports a maximum resolution of [email protected] (1)
-1 x DisplayPort, supports a maximum resolution of [email protected] (2)
(1) Only support when using a 7th Gen A-series/ Athlon processors
(2) Maximum shared memory of 2048 MB"
What does that mean?
GA-AX370-Gaming K7
" Integrated Graphics Processor:
1. 1 x HDMI port, supporting a maximum resolution of [email protected] Hz
* Support for HDMI 1.4 version.
2. Maximum shared memory of 2 GB
* Actual support may vary by CPU."
These specs can actually mean a lot of different things. Like being written for the Athlon CPUs available at MB launch or like for the K7, that they maybe but not clearly only support HDMI 1.4. It is clearly CPU dependent, and Athlons only support HDMI 1.4, so what is the story with the MSI board? The HDMI on the MSI is after all only available using an last gen Athlon?
No body seems to know, but a lot of people are opinionated. I would really appreciate it, if you could try it out.
As for HDMI 1.4, max refresh rate for 2D is 24Hz.Quote
