Currently, only the Intel® G35, G965 & GM965 Express Chipsets support hardware Transform and Lighting (T&L).

All other Intel® graphics products do not have hardware support for T&L. In most games, transform and lighting calculations can be performed on the processor with acceptable performance. A small number of games that specifically check for hardware T&L support may fail to run.
