like 'intel extreme graphics 1' vs pci geforce2mx200. sure the 915G pnboard graphics is better than some pci cards, even the somewhat new 865 integrated graphics probably isn't enough to beat something like a pci gf5200

it's easier if you just say what you are wanting to do...

gaming,video,movie and picture edting, etc... = yes

desktop use mostly, ie...word processing, surfing net, etc... = no.

that's pretty general, just let us know what you want to do with it.

Again, very specific (boarderline stupid) counterexamples
