I've had HD Graphics, and it's a make or break, hit or miss. For rendering images or high edge graphics, I don't think (my words) Intel HD Graphics would work. I tried it when I had a Dell Inspiron with said graphics card built-in, and was told by a Dell rep that for the line of art/graphics work that I do, it would be slow and taxing and that I should get an AMD/NVidia Graphics card, or just go the gusto and get a Gaming PC. That was, like, 2 years ago.

I went on and got an Acer Nitro last year for only $600 at BHPhoto and so far, I like it with the NVidia Graphics card that I have. I manage to get my rendering up to speed with 6GB of Graphics RAM.

Hope that helps.
