Is Intel's GMA X3000 a good graphics card. As per my knowledge Intel is a poor vendor of onboard graphics card.

Is Intel's GMA X3000 better than ATi's x200 onboard graphics card which is in D101GGC *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/images/icons/icon4.gif

Intel's GMA X3000 is better but not that good. I have used it on Intel 946, a useless motherboard as layout is concerned. It is nly vista ready onboard graphics. Intel is bad performer in this field. Ofcourse ATi's X200 is feel still superior.

The cost of D101GGC board increased like anything just due to ATI's onboard graphics. I bought it for arround 3000+ or so and now it is near 4000. It chased even Geforce, standalone graphic cards in FX 5 & PCIE 6200 series.

Thus onboard graphics from ATI are trustworthy.

Even I am looking for one like that. I doubt whether available for intel platform, For AMD, there are plenty such MBs based on ATI & NV chipsets. MSI has some nice motherboards.

I was looking far such motherboard from MSI with onboard graphics, 965 chipset. There is one 965 Neo for arround 6000 but without onboard graphics. This is the one recommended to me by Digit Test Center today, when I spoke to them. This is in cheaper range and good motherboard for those who can not afford to have Asus P5B Deluxe & MSI 965 Platinum.

When I spoke to MSI at Delhi, they informed me that there is one more board from MSI in 965 with onboard graphics & WiFi for Rs 9000, this is costly. Moreover I forgot to ask, whether onboard is GMA 3000 or something from ATI?

I don't think at present, there is any motherboard in market for Intel platform with onboard graphics as well as good performance & features and that all too at affordable cost. I am not considering Intel original motherbords at all. Only the good one was D101GCC with ATI graphics onbaord.
