Great article. I'd like to know more how it compares to Intel's new IGP. Maybe when the 5500/5400 series comes out? Trying to decide between a Core i5 660 with Intel HD or 661 with an ATI GPU. Thanks, Jake

Here's another reason to test the ATI 5700 series with Intel IPG for the TMPGEnc test (and hoping for the Handbrake time test): "ATI Stream technology to allow parallel processing shared between the CPU and GPU for faster video transcodes and media encoding tasks."

Why no DX11 support, or will it be upgradeable in the near future? Maybe I've been drinking the Kool-Aid, but I remember DX10 being a big deal, and assuming DX11 will also have higher performance/efficiency. I've been hoping more applications will do GPGPU for media trans/encoding. It seems...

Intel HD IGP vs. ATI 5700 Series Fantastic article. A few questions regarding Intel's HD IGP: Where can I get more information regarding "acceleration for DVD upscaling with the help of the IGP"? It is said Intel doesn't offer this, but perhaps ATI's 57XX does, maybe NVIDIA GX300 will in...
