Intel GMA 950 something.

That iGPU was just NOPE.

 

Not worth saying the ATI 9200 from 2004.

There was two versions of the 3210M. There was the Ivy Bridge with 2.9GHz Turbo and HD 3000 (Mine) and 3210M with 3.1 Turbo and HD 4000

Intel's website says there are 2 but both feature HD 4000.

This was right when Ivy Bridge came out. You could only get this with the EP series (The Premium Version of the E series) 

I bought it during the release week of this model. And when I went back a little later, I noticed that the 3210M was different. I was frustrated, but whatever. 

They discontinued mine when HD 4000 GPUs were released. And then added the HD 4000 alowing 3.1GHz Turbo (On Both Cores)  with the power/heat savings of HD 4000. (These were on the Windows 8 Models) (Windows 7 Had a choice of both 3210Ms)

I remember this because I did a lot of minecraft playing, and when I put in mods it would always load a details list in the config folder. My GPU was always labeled as "HD 3000" 

5800X3D - RTX 4070 - 2K @ 165Hz

866 mhz Pentium III with a 1.09gb hard drive. That's all I remember, unfortunately. Thing cost over $2000 at the time and for some time it was the best PC anyone we knew had. No GPU in there afaik.
