ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3850

Lower clocked desktop HD 3850 manufactured in 55 nm and with DirectX 10.1 support.

The performance should be somewhere between 8800 GTS and GTX and therefore it should perform quite well for games like Call of Duty 4.

The Avivo HD video engine helps the cpu in decoding HD videos (MPEG-2, VC-1, H.264).

Gaming Performance

This benchmarks were conducted with an AMD Puma platform (with a Turion 64 Ultra at 2.4 GHz). Therefore, a fast Core 2 Duo should perform better.

Crysis: 1024x768, medium: 24 fps -> barely playable
World in Conflict: 1024x768, Medium: 30 fps -> playable
Medal of Honor: Airborne: 1024x768, High: 35 fps -> playable
