I am surprize none of you found this review. I think the market interpret this as big threat to Banshee. The intel's chipset howl like a wolf. Consider this is Intel 1st foray into 3D land, I would bail too after reading this.

Conclusion
"The Starfighter is a great entry into the
3D party from Real3D and Intel. It has quite
good 2D quality/performance and good
Voodoo1/Riva128 level 3D performance in a
P2 system. I find the future of AGP to be
quite exciting, as shown by the demos
included with the card.

The i740 chipset is a real contender,
even though this review may seem
somewhat lukewarm. I expect to see it
integrated in system boards soon, and
essentially every videocard manufacturer has
jumped on the bandwagon to create cards
based on the i740 with various value-added
features. Hopefully prices will come down a
bit and AGP really takes off quickly, because
I for one don't want to wait! "
