According to AMD/ATI's site, that card either has 4 or 8 pixel pipelines... if it has 8, the ATI will absolutely crush that GMA 950. If you've got one of the 4 pixel pipeline cards, it'll obviously be a lot closer... so much so that other integrated options (Intel X3000 series) would probably start to match it in performance. That old card is at least DX9 compliant so that's good.

intel's newest GMA X4500 only matches the 8400M GS in performance.

x700 would crush an x3100 4 pipe line or 8 it wouldn't even be a contest.
