By default, the iGPU of the Core i7-1355U is the Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 (96EU), but the CPU in our machine has the 80EU version. The gaming capabilities of this model aren’t that good, even for an integrated solution. The main reason for this is that our laptop has one stick of DDR4 RAM (2Rx8) that works in a single-channel mode which is hindering the CPU and the iGPU performance.
