The new integrated graphics core in the Intel® 845G, Intel® 845GL and Intel® 830M chipsets deliver an intense visual experience. Innovative technologies add new levels of both 2D and 3D graphic quality to integrated graphics chipsets:
The Extreme Graphics core supports the latest 2D and 3D APIs, delivering real-life environment and character effects. A 256-bit internal path enables up to four textures per pixel on a single pass for super light maps, atmospheric effects, and more realistic surface details. Flexible display capabilities enhance the personal computing experience, offering significant benefits for applications requiring 32bpp and higher display resolution.
