This is my first attempt to game on a laptop. Not sure how graphics adapters on laptops compare to desktop pc's
Here is what my laptop has ... intel UHD graphics 600.
Is this good enough play Baldur's Gate 3?
I've played The first two and Icewind Dale on the pc's and would love to be able to play 3.
Thanks.

I would worry about how the game would run using your laptop’s integrated Intel UHD graphics. As with desktops, to run modern games well, you’re probably going to need a dedicated graphics card. As my gaming laptop has a separate Nvidia card, I’m afraid I’m not sure how BG3 would run without it.

Perhaps someone else can advise, but if in the end you are worried your laptop won’t run the game and you’re not able to add a graphics card, then there is the option of streaming using GeForce Now, though I imagine that then puts the pressure on your internet connection instead.

no mate integrated gpu is only for broswers or perhaps a game of solitaire

now to be clear this game runs well on laptops as long as that laptop actually has a real gpu

While it's not a free solution, you could consider GeForce as an alternative to running it directly. I only learned about it this week and a few days ago I squeed in a post here about it.

Gforce is an option for people with the bandwidth [15Mbps min] and not every country has access
