    Hi,

    I couldn't find this card in the comparison chart. It is a component of the DELL Precision M65 .. I was wondering if this card is any good. I would like to use the notebook for graphic apps , such as photoshop, the occasional game... and ofcourse for websurfing and all other normal administrative tasks..

    Also, what about the Quadro NVS 110M wich is a component of the DELL latitude D820 ? Would that be sufficient for the above tasks ?
    Again, I couldn't find that card in the comparison chart.

    Yes, both should be fine. They are both based on the G72 chip, like GeForce 7300/7400. The reason you don't see them in charts is because they are not gaming cards, but workstation cards and traditionally are treated separately. Usually they can play games as well as their gaming counterparts, but compatibility problems may exist with default drivers.

    Everything except heavy 3D rendering (whether in games or in professional apps) doesn't even stress modern video cards.

    If you don't play very new games with 3D graphics, you will not run into performance issues. If you do, you might.
