the REAL debate: NVidia vs onboard video

[lord_tyranus2]

Which wins?

 

[sargeduck]

Kinda of an odd question. Definetly Nvidia. Although Nvidia's had a lot of problems with lying, and cheating and being dishonest, there vid cards up to and inclucing the geforce 4 TI were excellent cards. Their fx line, is well, to put it gently, crap. However, even the fx line is WAY better than onboard.


As each day goes by, I hug my 9600Pro just a little tighter.

It depends on whether the NVidia cards are OPTIMIZED!!!

 

[barnettgs]

Onboard video? *cough*

It sounds as if you have no choice but had to settle for Nvidia's nearest and lowest rival, which is onboard video when it can't even complete with ATI? :lol:

Umm OK.

Just as my Radeon 9800 is OPTIMIZED?

fanATICs are getting out of control around here.

Athlon 1700+, Epox 8RDA (NForce2), Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 9 80GB 8MB cache, 2x256mb Crucial PC2100 in Dual DDR, Radeon 9800NP, Audigy, Z560s, MX500

No kidding... I mean come on guys, it's obvious that ATi wins this round, but you can't realistically compare onboard video to a tried and true high end card, crappy as though it may be.

<b>nVidia cheated on me so I left her for ATi. ATi's hotter anyway...</b>

I have to point at the lack of humor here. It was clearly an attempt to make a hyperbole.

Yeah. Basically if you couldnt get an ATI, Nvidia is still your next best choice.

But comparing onboard to NV is a nice low-blow smear campaign that I shouldnt have put past the fanboys at THGC.

Are you kidding? Intel Extreme Graphics slaughterz all! Don't listen to those add-in card fanatics. Tom's hiding the <i>REAL</i> benchmarks becuase he knows how pissed all of you would be when your ATI/nVidia cards gets trampled by the inexpensive integrated Intel Extreme chip.

My OS features preemptive multitasking, a fully interactive command line, & support for 640K of RAM!

 

[Gastrian]

Well nVidia would win either way. They've got the best onbaord graphics out there or at least until ATI bring out their new one.
