If you need just one single piece of evidence to prove that onboard
video sucks, all you have to do is ask any gamer. You'll never find a
gaming machine with an onboard video...

The first part of that is called 'anecdotal evidence'. The second part
is called a 'straw man'.

One single piece of evidence is never going to prove any universal
statement.

Gamers' systems will use neither onboard video, good _or_ bad, nor
crap PCI-E cards. That doesn't mean any of the three don't exist.
