    Seriously though.

    I'm buying a laptop with it onboard, and I can't find anything about it... not even in Nvidia's website. The closest thing I found (via Google) was a page on Nvidia's site about the GT 320 desktop GPU, but that's obviously a different thing altogether.

    If this is a rebrand, are there any comparable stats? Anyone actually have a computer with it? I'm really quite curious...

    "... may be still based on the old GeForce 9600M GT (like the GeForce GT 220M) with 32 shader cores and still 65nm production process."

    Yeah, I'm sorry, that really doesn't help me, because they don't seem to know themselves.

    regardless, you are looking at ~9600m gt performance

    looks to me like it supports dx 10.1, but it barely matters because the performance is going to keep you in DX 9 territory.

    Yep, and should be better (a little) than the 220m.

    it should be around 9600M GT performance... don't expect much... u can hardly play most games on high and 1280X800 with a 9600M GT...look for a laptop with a NVDIA GT330M at least ATI 5730...

    Ah.

    So... with 4 GB of computer RAM and a T4400 CPU (2.2ghz/core), would it be capable of running Age of Empires 3 with decent-good settings?

    At the poster directly above me: You don't understand, I had a budget set for myself of $500. I've already breached it by $150... It was $100 more to get a computer with a Radeon 4200HD, and I figured what's 50 more for a better GPU... that, and DDR3 RAM (so I can upgrade it later).

    AoE3 is really old. Most anything should work fine for that particular game.

    All right, that's good. That's the newest game I have in my library... anything more modern I just get for the 360 or not at all.

    Thanks for the help.
