    I believe its Intel. If you're running Windows on, go to Intel.com and have automatically detect your drivers, thus showing which chipset you have.

    It is a Mobile Intel HM55 Express chipset customized/modified to allow the graphics switching between Intel's video and the faster NVIDIA GeForce 330M.
