    How would the 128MB ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 HyperMemory graphics card compare to the 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 HyperMemory in terms of battery life and heat?

    Cheers

    No offence but we had this question asked 1 million times. Check the sticky's at the top please.

    Answer: The X1400 is much better then the X1300 and is worth the extra 100$ (configured at Dell).

    It is also said to use considerably more power than the x1300, so if you're not a gamer...

    Well if one inquires about the power differences between 2 cards, one can assume that he is a gamer...plus he asked about power, not power usage, so who cares which uses more power.
