Hi my brother is buying a new pc and he didn't mention a graphics card. Hes not much of a gamer but I am curious,
the cpu he has comes with the Intel® HD Graphics 4000 i believe but i have an old 8800 GTS 512 sitting in my wardrobe and I was wondering if that would be better than the integrated card mentioned above.

Yea buddy, the 8800 Nvidia is way better than the integrated HD 4000. I tried FIFA 13 on it and it doesn't even play it on medium settings. Have to lower all settings to minimum. Sometimes, the game even crashes!

However, it runs smoothly on my 8600GT. So yea, use the 8800 card.
