NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX vs vs Intel Extreme Graphics 2
NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX
► remove from comparisonNVidia GeForce Go 7900 GTX is the predecessor of the 7950 GTX and has still a very good DirectX 9 performance. The card enalbes the user to play e.g. Doom3 in 1600x1200 fluently. The card was used in large notebooks (because of heat issues).
The chip also features the PureVideo Technology but has less features as the PureVideo engine in the current 8600M GT chip. > Comparison of PureVideo features
Intel Extreme Graphics 2
► remove from comparisonThe Intel Extreme Graphics 2 is an integrated (onboard) graphic chip with shared memory on the Intel 852 / 855 GM, GME, GMV chipsets for Centrino, Pentium 4 and Celeron based laptops. The 3D performance is very low and therefore the graphics card is not suited for 3D games. For example the 3D Mark 05 does not start due to the lack of pixel shader support. Furthermore, the card does not support Windows Aero in Vista and Windows 7.
