One counterintuitive advantage of the integrated GPU is it has access to system RAM (instead of using a dedicated and fixed amount of VRAM). That means I'm able to give the iGPU 16 GB of RAM. For me SD takes 8-9 GB of RAM when running. The system RAM is slower than VRAM which is the trade-off here.

Yeah I did wonder about that as I typed, which is why I mentioned the low amount (by modern standards anyway) on the card. OK, thanks!
