| The 9400M has 256MB of dedicated memory too and the 9200M can use system RAM (hence why my system reports 3.7GB instead of the full 4.0GB).
That is a good comparison though as most people are reporting the "9500M G" is as fast as the 8400M GT, only a little lighter on power.
Here's a good site for mobile card benchmarks: »www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Gra···4.0.html
What sucks about Hybrid SLI is that you can't use the standard nVidia drivers. So my video card driver is ancient (by nVidia standards) -- it's the 17X series rather than the latest 18X series. Dell JUST released a new version May 9th too ... and it's still old as dirt. |

| Mine still shows the full 3GB of system, but vid card shows 1.5GB.
As Sony put it - "dynamically allocated".
I like it!
Thanks Matt!
