XFX has been in the motherboard market for a while.
^^but its just recently they have added integrated graphics.
It's not just about performance improvement in integrated graphics, but about *price*. IGP remains extremely inexpensive compared to traditional discrete-only graphics solutions. Besides, there is nothing stopping an IGP-based motherboard from offering a discrete-graphics option: Intel does this with most of the G-series (from bottom-fisher G33 to high-end IGP G48). Both ATI and nV certainly *could* do the same (ask them why they don't).
