Hey, I have a notebook with the Radeon Xpress 200M integrated chipset (128MB). I am curious how it performs relative to desktop chips. Can anyone tell me what the 'equivalent' performing chip would be? x1300? R9500? R8500?

I tried playing knights of the old republic (1st one) on the laptop and it barely chugged along, and looked like crap as well. However, return to castle wolfenstien plays fast, even at high resolutions and detail. I'm wondering if I have something set up wrong. I would have thought that KOTOR would have run OK. My laptop has 1GB ram with a 3600+ A64 CPU.

Also, can I update graphics drivers on the notebook in the same way as I do desktops?

thanks.... perhaps I should be asking these questions on the forums. :)

Did any of the reviews try to overclock? Can you overclock these mobile parts?

Well, I'd like to see how this will pit against NVIDIA's counterpart, actually.
