    Hello,

    I bought Dell Latitiude D620 with NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M 256MB graphics card.

    Now due to heating problems Dell has replaced my laptop. But with new laptop they have shipped Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset with Intel graphics media accelerator driver for mobile.

    Now i'm not sure is it better than my old NVIDIA graphics card? Is the new one, onboard graphics or a separate graphics card?

    I'm looking forward to run some handful of good games on this one.

    Please help so that I might return the new one back to Dell for graphics card.

    Thanks.
    Abhi

    Thanks for the reply.

    So should I return the new one and ask for NVIDIA 110M..
    does NVIDIA 110M has any heating issues with Dell Latitiude d620?

    Not really, but the dedicated video card will use up more battery power than the Intel GMA950.

    I don't mind having less battery power. but looks like capacity wise Intel GM 945 is far smaller than NVIDIA NVS 110M. So I guess i'll send back the replacement and get a new one with NVIDIA 110M to run at least some games.
    Thanks guys.
