The Intel GMA products are designed to allow Intel to offer a full system platform that includes graphics hardware. However, due to the GMA's nature as a highly cost-sensitive product, performance and functionality are limited relative to more expensive discrete graphics components. Some games and 3D applications will not recognize support for some hardware functionality because of the simplification of parts of these graphics accelerators. The GMA X3x00's unified shader design allows for more complete hardware functionality, but the line still has issues with some games and has significantly limited performance.[72]
Intel has put up a page with 'Known Issues & Solutions' for each version.[73] For Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Software Development concerns, there is the Integrated Graphics Software Development Forum.[74]
As with recent driver updates, more games have become playable on this hardware
