Not True

Most people buying computers think that way at first. Then they find they need a new graphics card later on. They think "Oh I don't play games". For some odd reason people think that the graphics card is only for games. Then go buy a digital video cam and try to manipulate thier content into a nice video to send to friends and relatives only to find thier video card is causing them issues. I've seen this a lot lately. A Gamer knows these cheap graphics card be they integrated or not will not do the job. It's the grandmother that shoots video with new digital cam that isn't as knowledgable.

Still think of this. Think how often a Gamer upgrade thier video card. I do it once a year and I'm hardly ********. Now if you have to upgrade you CPU, RAM and MOBO to get the latest and greatest of AMD's offerings then AMD will rake in the cash. Right now my CPU/MOBO gets replaced every 3rd graphics card or so. It will be interesting see the effects of this. AMD will have to make it very compelling to buy an all in one chip.
