Comparison of Graphic Cards

In the following we will briefly list all graphics cards which are available for notebooks at the market today. The GPUs are sorted by performance and classified in different classes. To get a better overview on current laptop graphic cards, older cards can be greyed out.

For more informations please refer to our benchmark lists and gaming performance list.

Class 1

High End Graphics Cards -

These cards are compareable to enthusiasm desktop graphics cards, like the 9800M GT.

Low End Graphics Cards - Only older games can be played fluently with these graphics chips (if they were not too demanding). Shared memory graphic cores in this category got the advantage of less heat production and longer battery runtimes. For office, internet, image processing, and video editing tasks these graphics chips are still useable without any restrictions.
