nah bro, im not always right ... :) again there are more experience ppl in terms of computing here than me, TribalJet and MAD_BEAST are among the many :)
but it is overwhelming that our GMA950 can do form it's stock form, with stock drivers... there are a lot of mysteries yet to be discover from our GMA950, in fact i do say Intel made quite capable hardware with the fact that they doesnt really know what its capable of :) by the term overwhelming, imagine the fact that our GMA 3 years ago only capable playing light games, now it can play source engine pretty well in multiplayer, the fact that it can play some hardcore games such as Doom3, Far Cry and Quake4..to it be able to run some games that others think impossible such as Crysis and Starcraft 2...no just games, the fact that now GMA950 can support video acceleration, webGL acceleration (well, in V1.3 that is) and other media acceleration by surpass the original stock drivers...
