But the fuckers have built-in, crappy Intel graphics cards. I want a fucking discrete graphics card. FUCK. I need to do graphics work, but I do not want a fucking Intel built-in card.

@OP
What graphics work do you do that the Intel Iris®™ integrated graphics can't manage?

Exactly. It is too fucking expensive. Thanks.

It is, however, not discrete.

Yeah, but you'll be using Iris 99% of the time anyway. Iris is stronger than you think.

Not strong enough.

Iris is only two years old, too.

Iris sounds like much more advanced technology than some of the putrid rotting corpses of other brands.

This thread is about computers, why are you derailing it?

Iris is fucking gorgeous. I played with Iris on one of the Macbooks at Best Buy and I have never seen so many polygons and shaders and shit. And, with lower power consumption Iris can go all night long on one battery charge. Try THAT with AMD or nVidia.

Seriously? Are you really arguing that Intel Iris is better than discrete cards?

Have you tried Iris? Intel graphics have come a long way since the Intel GMA days.

Well that should fit Kimmo's needs quite well, actually.

Fun Fact: Syntax actually invented iris and named it after a girl he was courting at the time.
