    So you guys are saying the 9600GT DDR2 is better than the HD3650 DDR3? By how much? (by the way, I checked the link. Just to make it clear, I meant notebook GPUs)

    9600GT GDDR2 is about the same as HD 3650 in performance, but the 9600GT GDDR3 is better.

    I think the 9600m GT will be a bit faster, even with DDR2, but the HD 3650 will run cooler and give you better battery life.
