AMD RS780G - integrated graphics redefined!

[alfhenrik]

AMD RS780G (http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=12116)

With no additional cooling aimed at the passively-cooled northbridge, we hit 850MHz with ease, representing a 70 per cent increase over stock, and is higher than a discrete Radeon HD 3470's 800MHz engine clock.

That's a nice overclock on an IGP...

Thats pretty sweet but IGP is still IGP =/.

Hehe i can *play* Supreme commander on an integrated card from amd. I think its a 690 chipset and a x1250 card.
I can play 1v1 10x10km map, it gets quite slow at the end but it is playable if you're used to it (1024*768 with everything set to low). I can also play tiberium wars no problem up to 3v3, medieval total war 2 (again most setting at low)...

What i'm trying to say is i was extremely surprised when i tried to play some games just for a test. I'm gonna put my current card into that computer when i upgrade this one, but now i'm not in a real hurry to do so, as luckily i can play most games on the integrated card when i get home for the weekends.

Integrated graphics are getting better and better every generation.

Tomshardware got it to clock to 950 with no additional cooling. I will be getting 1 of these boards to play with. Go AMD.
