I think NVidia would be wise to have no integrated graphics on the Crush. 3D graphics of the Savage (VIA) and SiS variety seem to be valued at no more than $25 by the market. Why should NVidia sell their GeForce2 technology so cheap? OTOH, dual channel DDR sounds like its made for integrated graphics where you need bandwidth to keep performance high.

Is it possible Crush motherboards will have a socket for an LDT, er HT, interface graphics chip rather than a standard AGP slot? Such a chip may or may not have embedded RAM.

In any case, a dual channel DDR chipset for the Palomino will give awesome performance, integrated graphics or not.
