Hello!

I have a question about the graphics card that is integrated in my MacBook, the Intel GMA X3100. Is it better than GMA 950? If it is, are all games that require the GMA 950 playable with the X3100?

Help would be very much appreciated!

Thank you!

that was easy =) but yeah, to give you more information the GMA950 is on the older gen MB's and has 64 MB shared memory while x3100 has 128MB shared ram on the later 2007 MB's. Finally for whatever knowledge, the new aluminum MB's have the nVidia 9400m which is 256MB shared ram

Ahaa, good to know! I've heard so much bad things about the X3100, so I was unsure. 🙂
