It has been forever since I built/bought a PC/Laptop and now I was asked to suggest a laptop with an iGPU for casual light gaming (if possible refurbished).

Can someone help me get up to date with the current specs? How much VRAM is bare minimum? And which CPU generation should I aim for?

Thanks everyone!

Edit: Gaming is not the priority. Office work is the focus with the possibility of photo and video workflows in the future. Also I am very confused with the naming scheme of Intel for their CPU and iGPU. Not very intuitive.

Depends on the needs of the person asking, but worth considering: if gaming is the priority then a Steam Deck might be best with desktop mode available for PC tasks.

No gaming is not the priority, more a nice to have. The rest is normal office work. But with possible image and video production in the future.

Invictus laptops then.

I didn't find any Invictus. Just HP Victus. Did you mean that?

Yes lol. Sorry. It's the lower budget mid tier gaming laptops. If you want more power then hp makes the omen series
