The Intel i740 was a 3D accelerator from Intel to promote the at this time new AGP bus. The on board SDRAM is for framebuffer only. For texturing the AGP bus is always used which offers half of the bandwidth compared to the on board memory. Then benchmarks showed that the PCI version performed faster in benchmarks. The cards performance is compareable with a Riva128.
