NVIDIA's nForce 420/220: It's finally here

Business & Content Creation Performance (continued)
We've got another multi-way tie on our hands here. You can't really tell any performance difference between the SiS 735 and the nForce 420-D. It looks like we're getting very close to the peak performance of a DDR Athlon platform.
The picture doesn't change much as we look at office performance; the top four contenders are still within 1% of each other.
Two wrongs don't make a right and two ties don't mean exciting SYSMark results. It's clear from these first few benchmarks that the performance of the nForce is on-par with that of the KT266A. The real question, how much more impressive would these numbers have been had they been presented shortly after Computex in June?

Max Payne - Brings a lot of good memories from that era. Running it at 1024x768 at max quality and getting ~30 fps? Really impressive for a iGPU of that time.I remembr playing it on Pentium III 500 with ATI Radeon Pro AGP 2X 4MB. Performance was really terrible due to texture swapping .. even at 800x600.
