here is a link comparing it to the 6100 and a discrete 6200 graphics

onboard is most definetly not for gaming.

Yeah, changed my mind now after looking through cape ads. cafe viva got a semi decent dsk top for R2649 which includes:

Pentium dual-core e2140
1gb ddrs ( doesnt specify speed but im assuming 667 )
80gb hdd
256mb ddr2 max graphics pci-e ( again not specifying make/model )
dual layer 20x dvd writer
lan, 5.1 audio, keybrd, mouse and 2.1 speakers

gonna go double check on all the specs to see if itll do otherwise it seems roughly what i want atm

Hey, be carefull.

The Intel on-board technically has DDR2 memory and runs on the PCI-E Bus.

yeah dont worry, gonna make sure its not onboard but first gonna see what price i get on the same products by my supplier.

If it is onboard but the cheapest option, can either get a 8400gts or radeon x1550 at 749 and 499 respectively

Rather get the GeForce, I think...

 

[acidrain]

was thinking the same thing, been using geforce all my life

I once had a Rage128

Even worse, I had a Rage Fury MAXX, only Win98 drivers
