Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M

[BennettWHU]

I've decided to buy a new gaming laptop. The one I'm interested in buying has an Nvidia Geforce GTX 765M dedicated graphics card. I'd like to know the difference this version has from the desktop version and why all laptop GPU's have "M" after them? Lastly, is this even a decent GPU to run games like, ARMA III and DayZ.

M=mobile gpu, it will probably run those games but not at high or anything

My guess is it would be around a GTX560ti in speed, or maybe a tad quicker.

Actually it is around the speed of 5850, but the good news is it has 2gb of VRAM rather than 1g.

 

[Yaayuh!]

It may have 2Gb RAM buit the bus speed is 128bit.

The 765M isn't all that great. Here's something you may find useful:

Yea the 128-bit memory bus certainly ain't great, but in laptop term at least it is an affordable GPU that would allow gaming on 1920 res, even if it means with some settings turned down.

The 770M/780M etc no doubt is much more powerful, but they also cost around £300-£400+ more.

To be honest, I thought the GTX 765M would be a powerful GPU considering the entire laptop is £1000..

A i7 QM CPU alone would already eat up nearly half of that £1000...that leave just around £500ish for everything else...
