My impression is that Intel does not produce graphics cards as powerful as nVidia and AMD currently.

I'm using a, what was 3 years a go, high end Geforce 6800gts video card with Blender no prolems with either the nvidia 173 driver on Ubuntu or the Nouveau driver in Fedora 16 and have no problems. My daughter has nvidia card in her new Toshiba laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 , nvidia driver and is Blender teacher, she has no problems.

No one in my family uses AMD because everyone has had problems when using Blender or high end 2d graphics manipulation, RAW files. The on the mother board Intel video driver is pretty useless for medium to high end 2d graphics and won't handle any 3d graphics for more than a few minutes.
