    In this thread I will be writing about mobile graphics for gaming! The thread includes the Benchmarks for the GPU, and a notebook that holds the GPU. I will not include SLI versions of GPUs until a further update in this thread.

    When posting replies please feel free to give suggestions to add to the thread.
    Also if you know a laptop a graphics card is available in, please post the name of the laptop and the graphics card and I will add it to the list.

    NVIDIA

    9800 Series
    3DMark 1280x1024
    The GPUs included are the:

    9800M GTX-
    Available In: Toshiba Qosmio WXW/79GW, Sager 9262
    3DMark 06:
    min: 9952, avg: 10045, max: 10138 Points

    NP9262- A gaming notebook that was created for on-the-go gamers without a budget.
    With a 9800M GTX, $2599
    This notebook is a fast notebook, but If you want it to reach par with some gaming desktops, you will end up spending an arm and a leg.

    Toshiba Qosmio WXW/79GW- A very stylish notebook for extreme gamers.
    With a 9800M GTX, $3500
    This laptop is loaded with good hardware and eye-candy. All the extras lead to this notebook being ridiculously expensive.


    9800M GT
    Available In: Sager 9262, Alienware M15x, and others.
    3DMarks06:
    min: 9228, avg: 9416, max: 9762 Points

    Alienware m15x- If anyone has any experience with Alienware, they have extremely high prices. Four-Hundred Dollars for 4 GB of DDR2! Thats expensive!
    Loaded with a 9800M GT (basic configuration excluding GPU), $1799

    Yes the AW cases are nice and stylish. Couldn't they at least include more recent hardware?

    Sager

    9800M GTS
    Available In: Gateway P-7801u FX
    3DMarks06:
    min: 9683, avg: 9683, max: 9683 Points

    Gateway P-7801u is the replacement for the 7811 FX, and it is practically the same model. It ships with a 9800 GTS, but there have been some OS installation issues.
    9800M GTS: $1599

    The notebook has decent hardware, but Gateway's Service is pretty poor.

    9800M GS (Downclocked GTS) Between 9800M GTS and 9700M GTS
    Available in: Asus G50vt- All Models
    3DMark06
    min: 8075, avg: TBA with further results, max: 8566 (1280x720)

    Asus G50Vt this gaming notebook is stylish as well as affordable. Asus' Republic of Gamers series is great, and has a great warranty.
    9800M GS: $1299

    This notebook would have to be one of the best hardware for the price notebooks that I have seen. I am also proud that I have ordered it, I will be getting it Tuesday.

    All of these GPUs are great for most GPU intensive games of today.

    9700M GPUS: (Similar to the 9800Ms but deserving its own spot)

    9700M GTS:

    9700M GT:

    [​IMG]

    In these Benchmarks the 9800M GTX is the winner in every game. Performance difference between the GTX and GTS isn’t incredibly extreme, although there is a slight performance increase from GTS to GTX.

    If you were asking for my opinion between the three, I would say the GTS although it is the slowest.

    I will be changing benchmarks in time. When I have time on the forum, I will look into reviews and such and pick out their 3DMark Scores.
