Maybe it does in those 3D game tests, but why is that important? The linked article clearly shows (and states in its conclusion) that either integrated graphics solution is still practically worthless for 3D games. Don't you think that either is satisfactory for the tasks you would typically perform on a cheap notebook?

It's probably out of stock but I'll go check out my local Best Buy today for this.

It's not important to me, but I thought that in case others were curious about the performance differences they could click the link for confirmation.
