You should do a benchmark test with the 9400 vs the X1600. I've haven't seen that benchmark on barefeats

In addition to that monthly package I have to send? Wow, sure, OK.

Pretty happy with it overall. I get nearly 40fps in X-Plane and it runs all my games well. No complaints. :)

Yes, should be fine for most games. Better than the old iMac's X1600 (no benchmarks, just deduction) &, with a few exceptions, than the alum iMac's HD 2400:
