Hi everyone,
I was looking for a low to mid end laptop for my parents and found 2 that would do the job. They are basically the same except one is a Toshiba (which id prefer) and the other is a gateway.
The only reason im considering the gateway is b/c the graphics card says that it has dedicated memory where the Toshiba doesn't. The gateway is listed as an ATI Radeon HD 6520G and the Toshiba an AMD Radeon HD 6520G.
I half think its just a mistake on the bestbuy website b/c the ATI Radeon HD 6520G is not even listed on notebook check.
So my question is are these just the same GPUs?
for reference:
Toshiba - Satellite Laptop / AMD A-Series Processor / 17.3" Display / 4GB Memory - Matrix Graphite - L775D-S7305
Gateway - Laptop / AMD A-Series Processor / 15.6" Display / 4GB Memory - Ebony Black - NV55S09U
thx

You should ask here: What Notebook Should I Buy? to confirm your choice/get more options if you haven't done so already. AMD and ATI are the same thing by the way, ATI was bought by AMD.

Thanks.
Sorry about putting it in this section. I guess i was thinking it was more of a hardware question, wanting to confirm that they were the same graphics, than a which i should buy.
