Intel Chipsets support DirectX 10

While Intel's newest chipsets might support integrated DirectX 10 support, their performance is a totally different story altogether. After all, what good is it if DirectX 10 is supported only for one to run the following titles at such poor (unplayable) frame rates?

• Call of Juarez @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 1.8 fps
• Crysis @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 4.4 fps
• World in Conflict @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 5 fps
• BioShock @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 3.7 fps
• Company of Heroes @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 3.6 fps

Clearly, you'll still need a spanking new dedicated graphics card if you ever want to get your DirectX 10 games going. Otherwise, stick to Web-based games like Bejeweled...
