    Looking to buy an i5 CF-52 but I want it do have a dedicated video card. Which place in the model number indicates dedicated video and what letter or number am I looking to see?

    I need to reload my CF 52S and upgrade from Win7 32 to 64bit.

    The dedicated graphics uses some standard memory. So the video ram will be subtracted from main ram. This gets to be an issue with the 3.2gb limit in 32bit.
    Things will perform better with 64bit on a dedicated graphics machine.

    Yes, mine is 64 bit with 8gb of ram, very nice screen. Bought it with the old "no sound" in the description. No sound driver it always turns out to be. For sale,also. OP.
