GT 650 SLI and GTX 660M, which one is better?

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2491914
Please read this thread. Already listed a few benchmark on the 1st post.

Always go for single GPU if the performance difference is not that much.

i read, but still not fully understand. anyway, thanks for your info.

I am mobile-SLi user and I found the scaling is not as effective as the cost needed.

Next setup will be single monster GPU. Better that way.

1. Will laptop with dedicated GPU die faster compared to those with integrated GPU?
2. Talking about laptop, are all integrated GPU come from Intel? Do AMD and Nvidia produce any?

By dedicated you mean discrete GPU and by integrated u mean System-On-Chip like built into the processor?

Correct.

1. not necessarily... my desktop's integrated GPU actually died...

but on the other hand, my old 4yr laptop's dedicated GPU has yet to die, albeit all the games that i play...

2. yes for AMD, in the form of APU (Accelerated processing unit)... look for AMD A-series APU... they ve great graphic (up to double the performance of Intel HD 4000), but lacks in raw CPU performance... still, a great choice for budget gamers...

for Nvidia, ever since AMD started producing their own motherboard and Intel revoked their rights to produce DMI-based motherboard, they stepped out of the integrated graphic market completely...

So little choice for AMD in mobile landscape. The only A10 I came across in Malaysia is a HP Pavillion. If only the brands brought in more line up, we could have real alternatives to those i5-3210M thingy.

Just to update that above .inf file is usable with the latest Nvidia driver @ 310.70

AMD announced their 8000M series GPU. Excluding the "high end" 8900M.

It look pretty boring.

looks like my GPU still the king for now

Aiya, don't be so harsh If they can deliver and give us good driver and make it to more brands laptop line up, it will be better for all of us

Maybe there will be a 8990M.

IMO, they should skip on the value and mainstream market for dGPU and focus more on Gaming and their APU lineup.

Their driver is good most of the time for me.

Yeah.. Not impressive at all...

Um.. Between Xfire 7970M and GTX680M SLI, which is more powerful?

even the slides got tearing.

powerful? of course GTX680M SLI.

Ok. Anyway, is the 7970M still having the underutilization problem?

I read latest Enduro driver fixed most of it for DX10 and DX11 games. AMD yet to release the fix for DX9 games.
