MBP 13"- New benchmarks

From MacWorld : Charts

The COD4 test was a shame for the 13", 38.9 fps for the low-end 13"against 68.4 fps for the low end 15".

"Comparing the new 13-inch MacBook Pros to their 15-inch siblings, you can really see the performance difference that the Core i5 and i7 processors and the discrete graphics can make. The 15-inch 2.4GHz Core i5 model was 16 percent faster overall than the 13-inch 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro. The Call of Duty test showed the GeForce GT 330M graphics in the 15-inch model could display 75 percent more frames per second than the fastest 13-inch model. Cinebench was 24 percent faster, Aperture was 32 percent faster, and Photoshop was 10 percent faster in our tests."

This is a shame, but not really surprising. Macs aren't for gaming, most people know it and this just reinforces it.

"The biggest performance difference, as you’d expect, was in our Call of Duty frame rate test, in which the new system, aided by its GeForce 320M graphics, was able to display twice as many frames per second than the older model with its GeForce 9400M graphics."
