    I got an Inspiron 9300 from 3 years ago and it has a Geforce Go 6800, but nowadays it is either coming with medium card or high end SLi($$!), plus I don't really want a large and heavy notebook anymore.

    Just wanna know that how does my Go6800 compare with modern medium grade cards.

    Thanks

    Let's just say you'll see an incredible difference in performance.

    The GDDR3 8600m GT is a fantastic card and can play most of today's games on respectable settings and resolutions.
