Well at least the onboard videocard could run 3DMark05, that's quite a feat itself. ;-) The motherboard scores quite well compared to the other boards which is nice to see.

Comanche 4 Source: Novalogic

The Comanche 4 benchmark demo is a unique test as it represents a real-world gaming experience. It contains the single player "Eagle's Talon" mission from the game as well as a detailed cinematic. This DirectX 8.1 benchmark demo will measure your system's performance in the standard frames per second format. The benchmark was run with audio disabled.

The onboard videocard is not really able to play games, but when using a standalone PCI Express videocard things are just fine.
