Integrated Graphics from NVIDIA Back In Style

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the old-made-new-again dept.

Hack Jandy writes "After a couple year of silence, AnandTech has confirmed that NVIDIA will be bringing back Integrated Graphics Processors this year. NVIDIA's last IGP chipset was based on nForce2 and received much praise all around. The new IGP, 'C51,' will be based on a stripped down version of nForce4 and includes PCI-Express. The article also goes into some detail about ATI's new IGP chipsets RS482 and RS410."

    I own an NVIDIA graphics card and I use it to play games amoung other things. I have Linux installed on my machine. I was pleasantly surprised when I visited Nvidia website and found that they have excellent support for the linux platform. After downloading and instaling the drivers, I was able to play such classic games like ChromiumBSU and Doom.

    Nvidia has gained a permanent supporter in me. I think more and more hardware vendors need to emulate what Nvidia has done and release drivers for multiple OS platforms and not just stick to windows.
