Anybody Know...

Can the integrated graphics in the Crush 12 chipset be disabled and replaced with a geforce 3 or Kyro II?

If it can? Is ddr(main memory) then running @ 128 bit giving bandwidth of 4.2 gb/s(not shared w/ integrated graphics) instead of 2.1 gb/s?

Just curious if anybody knows. If it can be, looks like we have a new bandwidth champion in our midst.

I thought their was an AGP slot on the thing, so, yes, most likely.

Hmmm.. Not likely. Its still unclear wether the crush will provide 4.2 Gb any way.. More likely to be 2.1 for mem-to-cpu and 2.1 for mem-to-integrated graphics. Disabling the onboard vga would then render the extra DDR slot useless, and you'll still have 2.1 mem-to-cpu.
