After researching the X3100, it turns out that it's actually not that crap. It supports DirectX 10 - which means it has to meet a certain minimum spec (like Shader Model 3.0 and Hardware T&L, etc).
for gaming it's still pretty crappy...

In testing, the improvement this new engine offers over the older solutions isn't massive - 3DMark06, the industry benchmark for ascertaining the capabilities of graphics engines in general, returned a score of 416. While this result is twice that from the previous generation of integrated graphics, it still proves that integrated graphics aren't for next-generation titles. Top-end cards score around 8,000, with even cheaper cards managing scores around the 4,000 mark.
