I'm putting together a new machine and was wondering if I should pay the extra money to get a dedicated video card or just get a motherboard with on-board video...
The machine will primarily be used for .NET development of web applications and watching movies. I don't really play any games and when I do they are not that graphics intensive. I use large dual monitors.
From what I understand if you use on-board video it will just use your macines RAM for graphics processing (correct?). If this is true, then my biggest concern would be the theft of memory that could be used for something else.
