While the AMD RDNA2 integrated graphics with the Ryzen 7000 series line-up aren't adequate for heavy gaming, they can handle some light games/graphically-rich software. The RDNA2 iGPU performance is contingent upon speedy memory for its optimal potential.

But if you are budget-minded, the Crucial DDR5-4800 memory available at around $52 USD per 16GB DIMM was the best value with Xonotic for referencing the lightweight gaming workloads. The Crucial DDR5-5200/5600 DIMMs maintained similar price-per-dollar to the GSKILL DDR5-6000 memory.
