Integrated Gaming - ATI 3200HD or GeForce 9300?

Hey Everyone,

So I want to make a media box that can do medium quality integrated gaming. Which integrated graphics technology is better - ATI 3200HD or GeForce 9300?

 

>Integrated Gaming

They're both TERRIBLE.

Unless you're aiming to play stuff like, CoD1 and Quake 3.

Do yourself a favour and find a 8800GT cheap.

 

Id go with the ATI chip, if only because I believe that nVidia has had more issues with their mobile chips being defective then ATI

 

Neither of those are mobile chips.

:thumbsup:

 

If I had to choose... ATI. I have a laptop with the integrated 3200. I can play half life 2 and CS source just fine, but at 800x600 resolution, even though my lcd is 14inches...

 

They are in a mobile, therefore, they are mobile chips, no matter what they say.

 

If you have a look at the following link it has a comparison of various graphics including the 9300 and 780g/790gx (HD3200/HD3300).

They perform about the same. Think Radeon 8500 or GeForce 3 maybe. I have a HD3200 mobo (780G).

 

AFAIK, the ati 3200HD can playback blu-ray and HD video through the GPU.

Anyway, both the ATI and nVidia are TRUE GPUs - they just use the system RAM & system bus.
