Intel 4500 MHD is not as good as Nvidia 7000 series?

Question

I am planning to buy a toshiba 13.3 with that intel 4500MHD chip.

I only look farward to playing Fullhd mpeg 4 by my Sanyo hd1000.

But can it perform as well as Nvidia 7000series? Is it better than Nvidia 6000 series? It is better than X3100?

Is is true that X3100 is slightly better than Nvidia 6000 series?

I played fullhd mpeg 4 with my HP tx1306 with 128 GB dedicated Nvidia 6150, it worked and was smooth. But what is strange is it did not work when I play with other NBs with X3100. It should work right? The screen was just all green and showed nothing. Maybe I did not install right mpeg 4 codec.

Answer 1

It is better than some of the low end models in the GeForce 7 and GeForce 6 series but worse than the high end of the GeForce 7 and GeForce 6.

The integrated (not dedicated) GeForce 6150 is slower than the X3100 for 3D (though it does have PureVideo) and quite a bit slower than the 4500.

The GeForce 6 series includes the 6100 and 6150 integrated graphics and the 6200, 6600 and 6800 dedicated graphics all of which differ in performance (and there are further variations within, especially with the dedicated chips).
