hi guys. its always debatable which one is the good graphic card for our laptop/PC. currently im searching laptop and I choose ASUS. now, what confusing me is the graphic card for the laptop. im not heavy gamer, but at least i can play COD: black ops on my laptop at least medium setting These are my choices (both can play in high setting );




does the windows exp index matter? gaming graphics for ATI and Nvidia is 6.8 and 6.7 respectively and graphic desktop performance for aero is 6.5 and 5.7 respectively

as I ask salesperson. most of them recommend me to buy ATI. its hardly to find ASUS performance series using ATI, most of them GeForce GT 520M to 540M. there are only one using ATI which is Radeon HD 6370M. as i read the review on notebookcheck.com, the gc mostly the same.

ATI link >>> http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-HD...0M.43959.0.html

Nvidia link >>> http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForc...0M.41715.0.html

these are the rumours/myth that i heard about ATI VS NVidia.

1. ATI always go on performance compare than Nvidia. Nvidia mostly view the graphics setting Ultra in most games but the performance, gameplay smoothness always win for ATI.

2. ATI is more have more lifespan compare than Nvidia due to when running laptop at normal status, ATI will go operating on intergrated gc, while Nvidia cannot.

3. Most games recommends Nvidia?

This is what i heard, this doesnt mean I am bias towards ATI, but this is what i heard from salesperson and some read on the intehnet.

sorry for the lengthy post

thanks in advance for ur view its really hard for me to choose between two

1. hmm.nvidia is the performance? thanks for convincing me
2. oic, i just read last nite, mostly gc like that. but its really are? because some gc i see they put intergrated hd 4xx. but some dont mention.is there are same?
3. huhu.if the performance really same. what do u mean pay a lot? we pay a lot to buy nvidia or nvidia pay the game maker a lot in order to use their gc.lol

hmm.in this case, nvidia is cheaper. the price with nvidia is 2249 MYR while with ati is 2399 MYR. huhu..thanks for the link.i not read it yet.maybe read it at the office

thanks for ur reply! really appreciate it.i want to go buy maybe today or tommorow. or maybe after i read the review from the sifu's here

oic.nvr realize that.sorry hmm.200+ MYR diff. still weighing the decision

the article is written on 19/10/2011. its very updated i think

is all Nvidia gc using Optimus Technology or only some of that? is that apply to GeForce GT 540M?

A43SV or A43SU bro? i think i mention A43SU.

based on netbooktech, Radeon HD 6730 got no PowerXpress 4.0. hmm, and A43SV also got no Optimus. So, technically same eh both gc

thanks for the link!! hmm.go for ATI eh? but 540m seems enough already

my budget is around 2.3k bro. i really love to play games. but not hardcore. for me at least COD: black ops is enough. i know if Battlefield 3 require higher gc. i wnt to do work and play game a little bit with my laptop

so does ATI got temp prob? thats mean ATI is more prone to heat compare to Nvidia? really?

uhuhu.u OC ur GT 540M. i dont dare to do that yet if i buy laptop with that gc

ops.im sory, it was A43SV. i just see it in the catalog. thanks for correcting that!!

thanks for the link! i finish read the whole topic already
hmm.i just read notebookcheck.net thoroughly. the 500-series support Optimus i hope they're right.huhu

im doing my homework.most of internet review told that ATI consume less power than Nvidia for same performance gfx im confuse now.
