Fyo, Re: Significantly below expectations, I'd say. Why? The GeForce 2 core is mainly limited by memory bandwidth and with 2.1 MByte/sec for the integrated solution vs. 2.7 Mbyte/sec for a GeForce 2 MX 400 I am not surprised at all that the latter is about 10-20% faster. Also keep in mind that a GeForce 2 MX 400 is faster than a GeForce 2 MX. I think the integrated solution performs exactly as expected. It's still performs much better than a TNT2 or a GF2MX200 which are both still used in retail PCs. The main disadvantage of the nForce is IMO not that the integrated graphics isn't quite on par with a GF2MX400 but that it requires two DDR dimms and the more expensive nForce version to reach that performance. I doubt that many OEMs will go that way. They'll probably only use nForce 220 which video performance is at GF2MX200 levels or worse. Andreas
