Comb: I had a GeForce2 MX when I got my MSI nForce board. I never installed the card, and have been very pleased with the graphics. The only drawback is that the video uses system memory. No big deal, though. I use the on-board sound too, although I think I will re-install my Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card. I miss it. Its kinda nice, though, to have all PCI slots open!

Can't say that I've had the pleasure of a Tbred yet, but even the lower Palominos are quite nice. I have a 1600+ that I run at 11.5x138(1586MHz) - at 1.55V. When gaming, 12.5x138(1724MHz) at 1.65V! It maxes out right about 1750 stable. Can't wait to see what TbredB will do! Hammer will have to wait until it reaches my budget range!

CombJelly,
If you do mainly work I think the on board graphics will be fine. I have yet to run into a situation where they haven't been satisfactory. However, your needs may be different than mine. But, my understanding is that you would have better overclocking results if you used the on board graphics right? I thought I read that somewhere.
