But I must also say that I've never been much of a gamer and I have never bought even close to the latest graphics cards. Another thing is that I also have been a Linux user in the past (still a casual user) and I had the best luck getting drivers that work and are easy to install for nvidia cards for linux.<br><br>My brother had a couple of ATI cards which were a horror and it just turned me off to ATI. But I will admit that was a while ago so I can't speak of now. It's just that sometimes the scars heal slowly.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[happy_penguin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2008 2:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on NVIDIA GeForce 9400 M, 9600M GT get official in new MacBooks]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/14/nvidia-geforce-9400-m-chipset-gets-official/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/14/nvidia-geforce-9400-m-chipset-gets-official/</guid><description><![CDATA[Apple is full of crap...

There are some slowdowns at certain parts but the gain in graphics is totally worth it(to me) Of coarse the price on the laptop more than accounts for this but it still is nice to be able to play it (especially on high). I also own warehead but havent had a chance to try it yet... probably runs faster. Also, COD4 runs on maximum graphics 1920 by 1200 no AA and is extremely playable with very smooth fps (havent measured w/ fraps). The only area that the graphics card seems to choke on is AA and I don't know why. It runs Half Life 2 and all expansions on full graphics but raising the AA level cuts your FPS down entirely.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[wert158]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 15th 2008 3:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on NVIDIA GeForce 9400 M, 9600M GT get official in new MacBooks]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/14/nvidia-geforce-9400-m-chipset-gets-official/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/14/nvidia-geforce-9400-m-chipset-gets-official/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't know the a lot about graphics chips, so I wonder, what is the difference between this chip and dedicated video graphics?  I understand this GPU handles the video processing now, instead of the intel processor, but where does the video RAM come from?  Is it just shared system memory, the same way Intel integrated graphics work, or is there dedicated memory for it somewhere else on board?<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michael Zupcak]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 16th 2008 9:44AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
