NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700M

The Nvidia GeForce FX 3700M is a professional high-end workstation graphics card for laptops. It is manufactured in 65nm and based on the G92 core (with all 128 shaders). Therefore, it is comparable with the GeForce GTX 280M, but the FX3700M is still manufactured in 65 nm (280M in 55nm). The successor of the 3700M is the Quadro FX 3800M, which is based on the 285M but features a higher clock rate. Therefore, it is faster at the same power consumption.
