Intel chipsets run DirectX10 games?

Quote:
GMA X3500
Since Intel states it is DirectX 10 capable, we decided to try it out on the available DirectX 10 titles that are shipping today, as a preview to the official release of their driver:

Call of Juarez @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 1.8 fps
Crysis @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 4.4 fps
World in Conflict @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 5 fps
BioShock @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 3.7 fps
Company of Heroes @ 1280 x 1024, no AA/AF -- 3.6 fps

5 fps or less on the DirectX 10 titles available today at the meager setting of 1280 x 1024 with no AA/AF. Sounds fun. GMA X3500 does not seem very "capable" to me, in fact it seems downright incapable of being used with actual DirectX 10 applications. Now consider that DirectX 10 titles will only get more stressful on the graphic subsystem as the API matures and game developers continue to add more impressive visuals.
