Aaron Davies, a senior marketing manager in the Intel Visual Computing Software Development group, asked in a video on the Intel Software Network Web page. "Here's your answer: Mercury Research showed that in 2008, for the first time, integrated graphics chipsets outsold discrete (graphics chips), and in 2013, we expect to see integrated graphics chipsets outsell discrete by three to one," Davies said.

Helldivers 2 will no longer require a mandatory PSN log-in on Steam, confirms PlayStation after a major protest by the community.
The reviews are worthless this move proves it. The actual game remains unchanged. Sony is going to regret giving these pc dummies this amount of sway over their releases on pc.
most retail pcs nowadays come with an integrated card, even laptops. My 2005 pc came with an integrated x200. Doesnt mean I didnt want to upgrade, or that my x200 could run games that great.
All I think this is pointing out is that pc makers are adding integrated gpu cause its cheap and its effective for most consumers. And nowadays pcs have alot more ram for the integrated card to use.
I think that they are finally starting to be able to use integrated grx in sli with a new card. Not sure if they are, but I always wondered about the possibilities as I have a x200 and a x800 in my comp(not that they go together).
