1. Thanks Nvidia. Intel graphics blow so hard. They are a laughingstock in the industry. Slow, incompatible, buggy drivers, etc.

BusinessWeek says they even suck at a kid's game like the Sims.

And Intel says they will re-enter the discrete graphics business? Anyone remember the i740?

2. not much point in this for ppl like me.

'oh we have better integrated gphx than intel offers but they still suck more than standalone cards.. but we give you the slot to use standalone cards thus making the integrated part worthless'

for ppl who won't buy a card that's okay i guess.. but who really wouldn't buy a card if they were at all worried about gphx performance?

Agree... BUT. 90% of the market uses this integrated graphics. Go to your local Best Buy. You are correct, no doubt, discrete is better, but does that mean those folks less superior than you deserve a bad experience? Now there is choice at least. Intel is toast.

3. So, it turn out that Nvidia really play in single channel. To Bad. It can't compete with AMD RD 7xx motherboard. I love GeForce 6150 the previous generation, I event own GeFOrce 6100 (cause when I buy, I can't find a store that have 6150 ready stock). Let's hope this is the "NV30" for Nvidia chipset and Nvidia will learn a lesson and fix it in GeForce 8150 :P.

4. Now Nvidia does smear job video on Intel graphics. This is going to get bloody! I am sure Intel is real thrilled after giving Nvidia a license to do chipsets and then get smeared by them.
