    Hi guys,

    I'm doing a bit of research on the NVIDIA 9500M card offered on the Studio XPS 13.

    Notebookcheck.com claim that the card fitted to the Studio XPS 13 is the 9500M G, but the G is not a Hybrid SLI card (i.e. two GPU's):

    http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-9500M-G.9451.0.html

    However, the 9500M GE is a Hybrid SLI card (9400M G + 9200M GS) so this would tie in with Dell's description of the SXPS 13 on their website.

    http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-9500M-GE-Hybrid-SLI.14029.0.html

    Notebookcheck.com is incorrect, right?

    Notebookcheck is okay as a rough guideline, but that's it.
    The 9500m in the xps 13 is a hybrid card.

    The Studio XPS 13 has the 9500M GE (9400M G + 9200M GS)
