GoKawiilHardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling shows little benefit on budget graphics cards, tests find
Microsoft's Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS), introduced in a May 2020 Windows 10 update, shifts scheduling of graphics tasks from the CPU to dedicated hardware on the GPU. Nvidia added support that June starting with GTX 10-series cards, AMD didn't support it until December 2023 on its RX 7900, 7800 and 7700 series, and Intel limits support to its Arc B-series. Benchmarks from Tom's Hardware and Gamers Nexus found the feature produced negligible or even slightly negative performance changes, including a repeatable 2.4 percent drop in one game on a budget Intel CPU.
