When AMD promoted the RS780G chipset in March 2008 - which comrade a DX10-compliant (separate) Radeon HD 2400 GPU with the core-logic - we commented that it was a large step onward for incorporated graphics.

Capable to connect a low-end separate graphics card's power, the Radeon 3200 IGP was the best ever obtainable, allowing necessary gameplay at a 1,024x768 resolution if eye-candy was crooked down.

AMD unveiled the faster-clocked 790GX chipset a few months later, coupling it with the SB750 Southbridge as well as escalating the IGP's core-speed from 500MHz to 700MHz. Gaming performance was more amplified by performance-enhancing SidePort memory. Our gaming standard showed it be around 30 per cent quicker than 780G.

NVIDIA as well as Intel have mutually launched DX-compatible IGPs as then, but the performance crown at present belongs to AMD. That alleged, every mid-range separate GPU - Radeon HD 4670, such as - is considerably quicker than all IGP solution.

A day or so later than 790GX, AMD launch the 785G chipset. The classification suggests it sits in the middle of the two current IGPs, but understand on to find out just what it is and how it performs. And it is being currently used by the latest ASUS M4A785TD-V motherboard.
