While this doesn’t affect yuzu immediately, any new Vulkan features we add in the future could potentially break functionality in a similar way to what happened with old AMD GCN hardware last year. This leaves integrated Intel GPU users with a single alternative, Linux, which offers support for even older hardware. -For example, an ancient HD 4000 can *run* yuzu with the Mesa drivers. +For example, an ancient HD Graphics 4400 can *run* yuzu with the Mesa drivers. Users should consider learning Linux if a hardware upgrade is not a viable option in the near future, Mesa has always offered better performance for Intel GPUs.
