I don't know I'd agree with that. Even a dual-core G630T /w Intel graphics is more than capable of playing 1080p video. The i3 with integrated graphics should be fine for most people. An NVIDIA graphics card really isn't necessary unless your looking to play games. Even if Intel's newest graphics chipsets are competitive with NVIDIA/AMD's offerings. The third generation was pretty impressive too actually. It wasn't quite hitting the low end from NVIDIA/AMD although came very very close. Phoronix had some very positive things to say in that regard with the 3rd generaton graphics. The 4th generation is even better with Iris Pro and geared torward gaming.
