too bad nobody plays "heaven" or "3D06", so for real world game performance... still no idea

[rado992]

Well, nice scores considering how scaled back the chip is.. IMO the best part of it is Optimus, which means laptops using Fermi (or should I call them desktop replacements? ) can still have battery life better than 1-2 hrs
if they can switch to the IGP. On the other hand, I wonder who's going to use one of these with a clarkdale, anyway. The thermals would be more interesing to see. 100W in a notebook only for the GPU? A tad too much maybe?

[Helloworld_98]

5870M = 5770

GTX 465 = 5850

GTX 480M has lower specs than 465 and we know that clocks make a huge difference with fermi so lets say GTX 480M = between 5770 and 5830, but probably closer to 5770.

there is no way a 470M is going to beat a 5870M, the 480M probably will by a bit, but not a lot

[Sn0wm@n]

100watt for a laptop gpu ? :| :O

[FischOderAal]

Doesn't it sip nearly double as much energy as the 5870M? So even if it is 40 percent faster it still is a failure. But hey, it has PhysX

[milkcafe]

that will be a "desktop replacement Laptop"
even the smallest desktop PC is inconvience to be moved to another place , while a laptop can be easily moved

battery = UPS

4years ago
I had a laptop with Pentium M 780 and Geforce GTX 7800 Go SLI
The GPUs is 150W (75W x 2)

BTW,
the Mobility 5850 with GDDR5 outperformed a GTX 285M
therefore, I dont believe the GTX 460M will be faster than the 5870M

[Sn0wm@n]

a laptop is only good for those who are on the road alot .... and a ups for a laptop???

[aintz]

not bad, though laptop gaming is kinda worthless. unless you really need to move it around that much.

[milkcafe]

you can using just "one" PC on the bedclothes
both playing high-end 3D games , drawing Maya3D and surf at the internet in the cold winter

and the slim laptop or the Desktop can't do that

slim laptop PC = insufficient graphic performance
Desktop PC = insufficient mobility

[cegras]

Notice how they say 'speedup' instead of FPS...

[Sn0wm@n]

laptop = put it on your lap
desktop = put it on your desk

[alucasa]

Having two laptops (one slim 13inch laptop and the other heavy duty 17inch laptop for gaming on road), I know what exactly milkcafe is trying to say.

[3NZ0]

laptop = put it on your lap
desktop = put it on your desk

Both my desktops sit on the floor under the table and my failienware is always on the bed or couch. Am I not allowed to call them desktops or laptops?

[-Sweeper_]

too bad you can crossfire two HD5870Ms and draw the same power of a single GTX480M

and who really believes a GTX460M is faster?

[eva2000]

i can see it now GTX 480M with 50min battery life

[Helloworld_98]

i can see it now GTX 480M with 0.5min battery life

fixed

[aintz]

its not half bad if it even manages 50mins bat life. the clevo w860 with a 5870 only lasts about 40-60 idle lol

[Manicdan]

too much nvidia marketing fail. waiting for a real review.

[dartaz]

5870M = 5770

No, it is not


5870M has lower clock speed than HD5770

HD5870M
clock speed: 700MHz
Memory speed: 1000MHz (4000Mhz effective)

HD5770
CLock speed: 850MHz
Memory speed: 1200MHz (4800Mhz)

Both have 800 shaders, and 128-bit bus

[ElSel10]

Looks like a strong part. I will be interested in a laptop with a 460M or 470M at some point soon.

[Necetra]

That gpu by itself consumes more power than my laptop's power brick can provide.

[h0bbes]

pair it with a quad core processor and kiss your battery life goodbye

[damha]

facepalm

How can you measure GPU performance with two different hardware platforms?
