Hey, Tech Gurus!

I just got an unexpected bonus and have funds for a new laptop. I'm pretty sure I have a handle on processor requirements, RAM, etc., but I know I need to add an upgraded video card.

I want to run UM, but top of the line isn't important to me. I just need a couple of opinions about these video cards:

NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 540M 2GB graphics with Optimus

NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 525M (128-bit) 1GB (seems a bit weaker than the above)

Thanks!

They are the same GPU but run at different clocks, the 540M being the one run at a higher clock speed.
