Although we don't expect consumers to choose any of these integrated solutions for serious gaming, the ASUS P5N7A-VM showed some potential here in these gaming benchmarks, especially if you tweak the settings and go for a more modest resolution. Unreal Tournament 3 surprisingly proved to be quite playable, with almost 30 fps for the ASUS, though one won't have expected that from its Quake 4 performance. At least there are some modern games that could run with lower settings for the GeForce 9300 mGPU. The other boards however were not so suitable, with the older Gigabyte just plain awful. It's also surprising to see that Intel's G45 graphics capabilities are actually better than NVIDIA's last generation, though not quite enough for any decent gaming needs (unless perhaps all game settings are set to a minimum). The GeForce 9300 mGPU on the other hand managed a lot better at mid-level game quality settings.
