A lot of this depends upon clock and memory speeds in the actual product.
Eg. on paper, you might assume the ZBOX HD-ID11 with it's GT218
would perform similarly to a discrete GT210 PCIe card.

But in fact it outperforms the GT210, handling Advanced/2X nicely.
Here, it even outperforms my GT430 fanless card (ASUS).
But other GT430 cards might do better than mine, depending upon
clock and memory speeds.
