    In terms of the best performance from a Mobile gpu how do these rank.


    I am asking because I am in need of a new laptop and I sometimes play games, but mostly just CS 1.6, not source, well because it sucks. I do enjoy playing a new game for a little while when it comes out but most games arent as good as CS 1.6 and just dont entertain me that much. I am interested in the Thinkpad t60 and the dell precision series.

    Um, the x1600 is no where near as powerful as the FX 2500 or 1500, which are comparable to the nvidea 7900 GTX and GS.

    Haha, yeah, I read the second post and was completely lost!! The FX2500 actually seems to perform right on par with the 7900GTX, both in 3dmark scores and all games I have seen people post results on. It's right in there with the best laptop GPU out

    i've heard the nvs 120m compared to a go 7600 and the 110m compared to a go 7300, but i'm not absolutely sure about that. and i don't know what the 350m compares to, i've kinda wondered about that myself.

    on a side note, the 2500M is a very nice card, pretty much top of the line. that's why i have been looking at the dell precision m90. although, i've heard a lot of people have compatability issues with games not wanting to run on a quadro. also, i've head that windows vista is not "friendly" to openGL.

    Not quite,

    fx 350m = go7600
    NVS 120m = go7400
    NVS 110m = go7300

    this must be:

    Quadro FX 2500
    Quadro Fx 1500
    Quadro FX 350
    Ati radeon x1600
    Ati radeon x1400
    Ati radeon X1300

    I could be wrong with the 350 place, but the rest is correct now
