AMD will still be the best bang-4-the-buck... HD4000 still cannot compete with AMD's A6/A8 built-in GPUs -- and the HD4000 is only available on higher-end IBs which are multiples more expensive than the A6/A8s
I'm not an expert but I play one at work.

i agree with Livin,
AMD i believe will still be best bang for buck!

Got the prices in my mailbox from newegg....
wow incredible expensive.......
I guess If you are a hardcore Intel fan who is going to multitask this is great!
But for HTPC I say AMD...... just my 2 cents....

I'm still considering it because I might turn my HTPC into my main pc in the near future when I move. Before I look into making the expensive purchase I was curious about its XBMC performance. Anyone have any ideas on how the 4000 would work?
