WTF is all this nonsense about the Igp not being capable of playing HD video.
The CPU will be doing all the decoding, You only need a capable GPU if you have a crap CPU and need the GPU to do the work such as in an Intel atom based system.
Secondly the Intel GMA X4500 will play most games hell even dirt 3 runs 15-25fps so games a few years older like Mass Effect will probably run decent on low settings.
People on here should really check there facts instead of just miss informing others with there opinion
Grab the board save up for a GFX card when ur ready.
