[QUOTE="LopeDeAguirre, post: 1887178, member: 408334"] I agree. Not concerned about the graphics performance in itself, no, but GPGPUs are a thing. If the iGPU is part of the 10910, I'd rather use it than keep it deactivated. Because Apple is sort of a controlled, homogeneous platform, it would be easy for Apple to write libraries and make use of the iGPU in the background transparently. So whenever there is a sort or such thing, one would have highly parallel coprocessor doing it. I'd find this very cool, actually. Deactivating the potential would be sad, though. [/QUOTE]
