Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 3650

The Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3650 or GMA 3650 is an integrated processor graphics card (e.g. in the Atom N2800) without dedicated memory. It is based on a PowerVR SGX 545 design similar to the GMA 500 (SGX 535). It is still not very fast and is therefore not really suited for gaming. Our tests also show that many games wont even start with the GPU and are therefore not playable. Furthermore, the announced DX 10.1 support is not given at launch, only DirectX 9.

The GMA 3650 also features a HD video decoder and is able to output to HDMI ports.
