GPU power question

My brother and I are haveing a little LAN party this weekend with some friends and I am one computer short. My brother has a Shuttle 45g with the onboard graphics (mx440 IIRC) but he has a PCI 9200SE that he can put in (LINK). Which one of these will have the most graphical power? We hope to be playing Ghost Recon, Raven Shield, UT2004, and maybe some multiply-player demos if there are any good ones out.

Thanks

You could download something like 3DMark and see which does better, the onboard or the PCI card.

Usually, onboard video sucks and you are always advised to use a video card. That 9200SE will probably work out best.

Have fun at your LAN party!
 
Definately the Integrated. That 9200SE has 64bit memory bus, low clock speeds, its HORRIBLE. THe onboard has if running in dual channel memory 128bit memory bus, much higher clock speeds, and its onboard so can run faster... also IIRC it still uses the AGP bus which is a HUGE improvement right there.
