I'm planning my next PC, which will be a mini PC. I'll also be adding an eGPU with a MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 3060 12GB
The integrated graphics are built into the Ryzen 9 7940HS.
Is there anyway to benchmark this setup PRIOR to building it? Like a site that will let me enter the info?
It's pretty hard to benchmark a card that you don't yet own. I wasn't able to find anything online that would let you do this, but I did find a nice comparison of benchmarks that you can compare with. Just look for the type of card you want to buy, see the benchmarks and compare against other cards. The only part of this that is a bit difficult is that it does not compare branded cards. For that you need google.
Here is the website that I was talking about:
PassMark Software - Video Card (GPU) Benchmarks - High End Video Cards
And here is a website that I use all the time to compare cards. It's not as thorough as the first one, but it gives a lot of detail into the cards you are comparing. Note that it also does not compare individual branded cards:
UserBenchmark: Nvidia RTX 3060 vs 3070
For branded cards, you are going to have to use google. If you want to compare an ASUS 3060 ti to an MSI 3060 ti, there are pages for that, but I don't know what brands you are looking at (Oh, duh, MSI), so I can't find an appropriate page. However, there are plenty of buyer's guides out there. Just be sure to find a credible source.
Good luck.
Oh, BTW, and I assume that you already know this: The integrated graphics and the discrete GPU in your proposed system will not work together. In most cases these days the two are mutually exclusive. It's one or the other, I am afraid.
