Hi, i'm confuse here..
is it 1GB GDDR5 AMD Radeon™ HD 6870M is better than 1.5GB GDDR5 NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460M?

Yes.
Im sure your confuse because of the amout of memory they have. Well let me clearify it for you. 2GB, 1.5GB or 1GB does not make much different. Actually 512MB is considered enough d. The amount of memeory a GPU is just for the screen resolution. Since most of us uses a max resolution of 1080p, 1GB should suffice.

bear in mind that Memory is not everything.

that fact is always been manipulated by laptop company as a hype to boast their sales.

now i know..thx to Mr Docter too

astria haven't update the 1st post for a long time. astria u there?

busy maybe?

how good is ATI HD 5470 ,GT540m and GT550m?

is GT540m good for gaming??

GT550M>GT540M>HD 5470

heres the benchmark for GT540M

see whether the fps is suitable for you

how good is ATI HD 6470 and GT520m?
Still thinking which to take for below two model:

Acer Aspire 4743ZG

P6200
2GB DDR3
320GB HDD
GT520 1GB
Win7HP
3 years warranty

or

Asus A42JY-VX072 Intel Core i3-380M/2GB/500GB/14"/Radeon HD6470(1GB)/Dos

Take the GT520M,..

So I'm thinking of either the N53SN or the XPS 15 MLK. Haven't been able to find any benchmarks on the GeForce 550m.

How great is the performance increase from the 540m to the 550m? Would appreciate any insight on this.

Probably around 4-5 FPS depending on games..

Ah thanks! According to this :

http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForc...0M.42264.0.html

Says it should be equivalent to the 445m whereas the 540m would show a 10% improvement over the 435m.

http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

Looks like a huge improvement from this, so I'm just puzzled.

Nah, should trust too much on that since they dun have actual benchmarks yet..

They did state this
'The GeForce GT 550M is not yet released and therefore the following information is still based on rumors and leaks'

Alright. I guess I'll wait for the benchmarks to come out. Thanks a bunch!

in this case, what did u see to determine the GPU's performance? especially for gaming..

amd 6570 compared with gt 540 which one better?

pixel shaders, clock speeds...

is GTX 485M is the best GPU out there??!
