It looks as if ATI has a winner in the 7500 for notebooks. 50-200% increases over NVidia's GF2go.

Here's the proof:

I can't believe it. 3900!!!!

Wow. That's...almost too much to believe. I wonder what kind of heat that thing puts out in notebooks.

ati cards have always ran cooler and active cooling is most always just for show with radeons, its like amd vs intel, one has the faster chip (nvidia+amd), and one has the more efficient better designed chip (intel+ati)....i would not be surprised if ati took over the notebook graphics market...apart from trident they already have....ive seen a lot of rage 128s in notebooks, i want to find one with a gf2go however because of performance, yet i only want to pay 1000-1500 dollars

Hmmm, I should test out my laptop...it can run Max Payne, but I get the feeling that's only because I have muscle in the processor department! I'm gonna check if the download is feasible on 56K...

Holy shiat! This thing is pulling 100+ fps in Quake3 at 1024x768x32 Max. That's a beast for a notebook.

All this power is probably coming at a cost in battery life.
