I have a x300 ATI card and was wondering if the onboard graphics of motherboards today would be better than it...

Yes, current onboard graphics are better than the X300 (especially with an AMD chipset).

Sure!


Anyway I asked because we bought a new motherboard and CPU to replace the old fried one.(Don't ask how, I don't know). The mobo has onboard graphics but we use the x300...

Will it fold?

I don't think so. Even if it does, i probably will not finish WU's (correct terminology?) in time.

Onboard is better than x300 if it is an amd board, nvidia 9300 or 9400, or if its on the new i-3 etc.
