    Now just a question, what is the memory bandwidth of the 4650 DDR2? :confused:
    My 9500M GS has 15.4GB/Sec. when OC'd and i think that the 4650 won't be much better :(

    Bandwidth isn't everything, but DDR2 should be around 13-14; doesn't change the fact that the 4650 is faster than the 9500M.
