I just don't know if the higher the score the better. I did test with card installed w/3dMark 11. with card not installed 3dMark 06. I got an error trying to test with 11 w/o card. I don't believe the integrated graphics on the chip is directx 11 compatible. Also I noticed the letter P preceding my score with 3dMark 11. I wonder if these test scores are comparable since I used two different 3dMark versions.

No they aren't. You have to use the same test to compare. And no the Intel graphics is not faster than the HD 5570, despite the card being a step or two up from the very low end of the HD 5xxx series of cards.

You want better gaming performance either leave the card in or get a better card.
