Question about a GeForce 9300M

MmagusB · 05-20-2009 05:49 PM

Hi,
I use a motorcycle for transportation and am downsizing my laptop from the 17" beast I lug around now. I found a 13.3" that has a GeForce 9300M card. The stats on it (and the rest of the computer) are much better than my GeForce Go 7600. I run the game fine now...soooo...will the new card work? Oh I will be runnning Window XP on it.

Thanks!

Your GeForce Go 7600 is a more powerful GPU than the 9300M

Keep in mind the second number in the series. 0-3 is low end for viewing movies and flash. 4-6 is midgrade for low impact games and HD movies. 7-9 is high end for gaming and 3D applications.

..... or close to that anyway.

Keep in mind that it will probably play the game, but you will have to floor all the gfx settings.

I'm sure that someone else will be here shortly with all the tech jargon for why it is so.....

I do too.

You pretty much summed it up though. It plays but you'll have to tone down the graphics to get smooth frames. Reason is the chip is the Celeron of the Nvidia world. Or, if you like, it's the difference between the 6 cylinder Mustang and the GT, which would be a 9600, and the Shelby, which would be the 9800s.

/I like Mustangs.

Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012
