Phatetic at best? It depends on the game IMHO.
Thats Ivybridge according to:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core
processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Even Sandybridge is enough to play Supertuxkart, Freedroid RPG and others
at Full HD.
Heck, even Planeshift is quite smooth, except for the magic spell graphic
effects.
Ivybridge should about be twice as fast in many situations from what I
read.
So granted its likely not anynear that fast as the NVidia with its
proprietary driver, but its also not pathetic in my view, but quite good
for integrated graphics.
