Quake III was
the only 3D application that ran properly on the Mini
DRAGON - both Unreal Tournament 2003 and 3D Mark 2003
suffered unacceptable graphical corruption using the
latest 1.16a driver from SiS' site along with the Catalyst
3.6 driver. Nevertheless, Quake III runs smoothly,
at least when the system is armed with a capable graphics
card. Relying on integrated graphics alone yields
dismal performance. Even at 800x600, the platform is
barely capable of playable frame rates.

Switching
between discrete and integrated graphics modes affects
more than just gaming performance. It also
negatively impacts memory bandwidth, and according to
PC Mark 2002, processor performance as well.
