Thats a gaming card.
And highly doubt it.
I possibly think it will be another NVIDIA.
it has the same tdp as the 650m
I just read up on it. Might as well stick to Nvidia.
not necessarily, for graphics professional this would be thousand times better than a higher clocked 650m, gcn arch is miles and miles ahead of kepler when it comes to compute performance
It seems though that AMD wants to push the 8800M series into the mainstream GPU spot. The one that is currently firmly held by the 650M and formerly 540M, 6750M, 5650M, 330M, 240M, ...
In pure TDP it could reach this low as the 7850 is already rated at 32W. I doubt it is really any better than the 650M. The next big improvement is a long time of all we get this time around is minor refreshes and rebrands.
they only had 1 notebook with this gpu, it was the late envy 17, and it was the underclocked version the 7850m, they only sold the card in the firepro variant, AFAIK only the 8570w and the m4700 had it.
the problem is the card is miles and miles ahead of the 650m as well. one score around 3k while heavily overclocked, while the 7850m scores 3600 stock, with an oc, it reaches the same level as the 7770 ghz edition, with the new drivers its around 4k, the numbers are from 3dmark11 btw
so to put simply the performance of the 7870m is very darn close to the performance of the 675m, and that is a gaming card at a tdp of 100w, damn great design
and the tdp of the 7870m according to what I saw is 45w, the same as the 650m
