    Well, one is my cheap desktop graphics card. And the other is the card I'll pick up if I'm going to be too cheap for a 6970+.

    Which one has better performance? By all means, please say that the gt240 will get stomped. :D

    Vantage scores according to Notebookcheck:

    GT240 = 4382
    GTX560m = 8001 (~ x2 times)
    6970m = 11384 (~ x2.56 times)

    I would go with 6970m, you can get it for free from Malibal as an upgrade from 560m (Black Friday deals till 28/Nov)
