1.) Which card is stronger for gaming, the Nvidia 570m Quadro or the ATI Mobility Fire GL V5250?

2.) What is the Nvidia 570m Quadro an equivalent of? Does it equal a Nvidia 8600 GS?

3.) Can we change the drivers for the Nvidia 570m Quadro to better suit it for gaming like the ATI Mobility Fire GL V5250 can be changed into a ATI X1600?

4.) Also is Lenovo gonna make gaming counterpart cards like they did in the T60 series with the ATI X1400 being the replacement of the CAD cards?

Thanks for any and all responses!

Lenovo notebookss are NOT gaming rigs. They're designed for business use. Their video card is designed for business users and can be used for side gaming as well.

If you're going for gaming like 90% of the time, don't bother getting a lenovo.
