    Short version: Which is faster?

    Long version: Are there any benchmarks?

    Dang. I was hoping that there would finally be something better than the F6Ve in the ultraportable gaming category.

    Ultraportable gaming? Are you high?

    two guys ask the same question in the same day. The 4570 is a little faster as Cobra said.
    I think unless you expect a ultraportable that can play crysis fluently at highest setting, the Asus F6Ve is pretty enough for today's gaming need.

    The G210m is a little lower i think, the only stats I have seen for it were from some Taiwanese review of the Asus UL80VT (su7300 g210m)
    which got 3.2-3.35k in 3dmark06 (1.3-1.7ghz)
    compared to 3.7-4k 3dmark06 with 4570

    but if you interpolate the CPU results to being normal processor amount then they should be pretty similar
    However, the 4570 is gddr3, while I'm not sure if they're using ddr3 or gddr3 in the g210m in the ul80vt

    So that's a lot of excuses for their scores, but with the same shaders and speeds assuming gddr3, then there shouldn't be much difference, and we notebookcheck doesn't tell what the real current consumption is for the ATI so can't compare there (12-15 plus possibly 5 for chipset for ATI // 14 for Nvidia)

    I asked first :p

    Anyways, it's not that I have any specific complaints about the F6Ve or the 4570, it's just that I'm always looking for newer technology that beats what's available today.

    Hey guys, just thought id point out that this is wrong the G210M beats the 4570, the benchmarks notebookcheck have for the 210M are only an estimation they havent actually tested it yet, it gets 4-5000 in 3dMark06 depending on the CPU its paired with
