I've just bought a new motherboard with integrated Intel X4500 graphics (G41 chipset). My old graphics card was an NVidia 7600 GS. I was planning to use the X4500 and not reinstall the NVidia card, assuming performance is comparable or better. I haven't been able to find any benchmarks that compare these two cards though. Can anyone give me an indication of which performs better (just for general Win 7 desktop apps - I'm not playing any 3D games).

Just for general purposes, both are equal, I doubt you will find much different. For video playback, again both are equals, with both providing support for Hardware acceleration for MPEG2. | |||

And the NVidia 7600 GS (with 256Mb onboard RAM):
