Integrated graphics

[akshayt]

A 9800Pro can play UT04 at 1280*1024 MAX no AA no AF or better. If you think like this almost any card today including nvidia and ATI onboard graphic cards should manage around 10X7 Med, this is worse or about equal to FX 5200.

With the Nvidia 6150 they get 5400 on 3d mark 2001 using the MSI K8NMG2-FID. So you should be able to use that # for comparision. There's a huge thread in the motherboard section on thier experiences. It's a Matx board, so it doesn't get much gamer use, mostly for Home Theater use.

The first post is often updated and says that ATI plans to release an improved integrated video board soon.

Funny, I beat that by a bit on a P3-850 (AGP 2x) with a 9700Pro back in the day. With the ATI buyout I expect we'll start seeing decent integrated graphics. I wouldn't recommend integrated graphics for even HT use, it's surprising how people so de-emphasize GPU in that application when a serious setup is (almost) as demanding as a gaming rig.

If you had to chose between only those two, then nVidia. Have you considered the 7900 GS?

Nvidia hands down.
