    was just wondering cause the laptops that are newer have the newr intergrated cards and they are abit expensive. when i got a hp laptop last year the had nvidia 7150m intergrated it was around 500£ and a few months later it was around 375£.

    so will these laptops with the newr gpus go down in price within months or will they be marketed has high end intergrated cards and stay the same price as when they were new.

    I'm not exactly sure what you're asking here sorry :confused:

    Yes, IGps are getting stronger, but in most cases, so are dedicated GPUs. Will they go down in prices? Well as new stuff comes out, old stuff goes down in price yes.

    it just seems that the laptops with these more powerful intergrated cards are just as expensive with the ones with dedicated cards.

    It depends on the rest of the laptop though. Price is not only determined by the GPU after all.

    ATI has the new Neo processors there not as fast as the Core 2 but they have ATI 3410 integrated and that is alot better then what we had a year ago ill tell you that :D and it will probably blow the 7150 away so i would wait for it to come out :)
