NVIDIA 200m Series my thoughts

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 02:38:24 +0000

Written a wee article on my thoughts on each of the current NVIDIA Geforce 200M series GPU's
Also listed the Notebooks featuredin the last few weeks in their respective GPU sections.

These are my thoughts on the subject you are welcome to express yours :)

I needs some help to fill in the missing specs of the GPU's and can also list other 200M series GPU's to make a more complete list.
Links to original OEM pages would be prefered.

The smaller brother to the Acer Aspire 8940, but from one extreme to the other and the horribly low resolution LCD is here again (as in the ASUS below)
This is ATI powered, but with the low res screen the GPU will be bored most of the time.
A good choice for those needing CPU power not showing of Movies or Graphics.

This is a Core i7 Powerhouse, very nice specs BUT an awful screen, why ASUS with a beast of Geforce 260M with 1 GB RAM would you want a 1366x768 resolution screen ?
If it wasn't for the screen it would have been on my want for xmas list.
