Based on 3DMark06 they are roughly equal. Will have to wait for a review based on game benchmarks. |

| Is that 3DMark a pretty good representation of how they will perform? According to that the 9700m GTS has a slight edge over the 8800m GTS. |

| reply to Siryak They will be almost the same. The 8800 shouldh ave an advantage in shader intensive games because it has 64 SPs versus 48 for the 9700M GTS but the 9700 has many new features, such as hybrid power (i.e, you're using an IGP while idle) so better battery life.... |

| They have now posted game benchmarks for the 9700m GTS here at the bottom of the page ---> »www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeF···9.0.html
Unfortunately I don't know how the 8800m GTS performed so this doesn't really help me. Does anyone have an idea of how the 8800 performed compared to this? |
