    Hi, i cant decide which laptop should i buy

    what do you think, how big is the difference between a 9600 1 gb ddr3 and an ati rad hd 4650 1 gb ddr2?
    which is better?
    and how much is the differnce between that nvidia, and the same ati but with gddr3?

    thank you

    I don't think there is a 9600MGT 1GB DDR3 I could be wrong, but sounds more like a DDR2 card in which case the 4650 would be better.

    Several tests say the 4650 is ~20% stronger than the 9600GT (GDDR3 versions both)
