okay, so taken a whole month, but I know what laptop I am getting now to replace my M90 and D630 while they nest under my desk for forever folding and BSODing. A t61p, but I need help comparing the graphics card to know what it can do, and how well it will do what I ask of it.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lenovo-Thin...tops_Nov05&hash=item3377c7a9a1#ht_1396wt_1396 is the exact one. As it says, its a FX 570m, C2D @ 2GHz, 3GB, 1200p, and a few other do dads that I will probably never need or use.
http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-Quadro-FX-570M.6938.0.html Tells me it is more or less a 8600m GT with 128bit/256MB/32 cuda cores.
okay, so this means nothing to me. I am coming off a NVS135 and FX2500m. It will clearly out perform the 135m as it has double the cores and bandwidth. But how does it compare to the 2500m? They are a different architecure, so makes it harder for me. The FX2500m has 24/8 and is based on the 7900m GTX. So I guess I am asking how the 7900m GTX is compared to the 8600m GT?
Really, It will definitely do what I ask of it. I can run Blender off a integrated chip, but it will take forever to render what I do. But how will it do with games? More precisely, BF2 and a few older games n DX8 and DX9 like Global Operations, Medal of Honor all of them, but the older versions, AA and PA and the like, and Command and conquer up to generals. I really want to be able to use them on the go if I can to kill time. But I want to be able to max them @ 1200p. I know I can on teh FX2500m while burning my lap, but Will I be able to max them on the 570m? Or will I need more vRAM?
