Anyone Know If This Graphics Card Sucks?

I'm looking for a new Dell and the only graphics card it's letting me get is the Integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 900. Does it suck?

If it is intergrated video, it sucks.

Then you must be gonig for a low end dell. Don't worry about it. Go ahead and get it, then buy a new video card for $40.

What do you want to do with the computer? Integrated video does indeed suck but depending on your application it might not matter.

for poker and everyday use ie email, word processing, web browsing...it'll work fine, for graphics intensive games it will suck.

Minimum card I would purchase at this time would be a ATI 9800 Pro.

Damn. What does it mean to have a video card that sucks? Will it slow things down?

No, people who need amazing video cards just say everything else sucks. You won't have a problem at all, it just won't be very good for video games.

The short answer is yes, it sucks hard.

What are you using the computer for?
