Lightroom minimum requirements - Intel GPU

Report · Jan 22, 2019

Hey! I am going to buy a mid-range laptop and I want it to be able to run Lightroom. I've found some deals on older laptops but they don't meet the GPU minimum requirements: They don't have a Skylake or later version of the Intel GPU. The best I found was one that had the version before Skylake (Broadwell) and it should have close to full DirectX 12 support. Not 100% though. Will this run Lightroom at all? Or should I go for a lower end and newer laptop?

Thanks a lot!

Hey, thank you for your assistance but that didn't really answer my question. I was curious to know if it will run at all on an earlier Intel GPU at all, although from your reply I should perhaps infer that it will not run unless you have a Skylake or newer GPU?
