Is there a good resource for knowing if your graphics card meets the minimum requirements for a game? If a steam game says “intel iris pro 650 or better”. How can I know if an iMac exceeds that?
thanks

That probably means any recent dGPU or Intel Plus/Pro iGPU, but it can be tricky to guess if the developer only lists a single card. The game could be limited by VRAM, memory bandwidth, processing power, or even feature set / age.
You could try comparing your card on UserBenchmark or Notebookcheck for a general relative estimate.

It may not be the best method but I would look up when a graphics card was released, what its capabilities are and see if the one in my own Mac compared favorably. I don't think there's a list. Maybe someone else knows. The card you mentioned ws just released in 2017.
thanks for the links, between those and https://technical.city/ i was able to get a good feel for what was what. the technical city site (sometimes) has a section comparing minimum and recommended specs and where the cards fall on those specific benchmarks, for different popular games, which gives a good view of what is better than which.
thanks again,
Jason
