Integrated Graphics: DirectX 8/OpenGL Gaming Performance
We do so much testing with high-end graphics cards that we sometimes forget that the 9100 IGP PRO would be better than average performance for most computer users. The RS350 trounces the Intel 865G in every gaming benchmark, and the frame rates we found in OpenGL and Direct 8 games would generally be considered playable on the RS350. The one exception is Comanche 4, but we do run that benchmark with 4X AA enabled; with AA turned off, the frame rates do improve to more playable levels in that game.
Unfortunately, about the only game with playable frame rates on the Intel 865G is the older OpenGL Quake 3. X2, Comanche 4, and Unreal Tournament 2003 are not pretty at 10 to 20 fps on an 865G.

Who that comes to this site give a flying f*ck about integrated graphics?? Whether you're comparing a Yugo GV or a Yugo GVX, ITS STILL A FRICKING YUGO!!!where are the x800 bencharks?? that's what we care about.

To bad the 2.8 Prescott's are worthless considering how they hardly out shine their Northwood counter parts. But it's interesting to see how a Prescott tweaked mobo performed.Marsumane - Monday, May 3, 2004 - link
Integrated graphics that still suck!Although they are just like the comparison between the 9800xt and the 6800u. 2x as fast)
