Graphic Cards Intel GMA950 Integrated Graphics Core

[Quad Master]

Intel recently released a new core logic family, the 945/955 series. Part of the 945 chipset is a new, integrated graphics core. We'd heard from some sources that Intel's new GMA950 offered substantially improved 3D performance over the GMA900 built into the 915G core logic. So we had to check it out for ourselves.

Intel's new GMCH will probably run Longhorn's upper tier Aero Glass interface pretty well. And Intel certainly wants that, because its OEMs sell truckloads of systems with integrated graphics into businesses. So businesses whose users want to use the Aero Glass interface will have a solution that works, but the IT budget won't be severely impacted. If you're buying a system for the home with the intent of running the occasional 3D game, drop an extra $60 and get an add-in board.
