Re: The Notebook GPU Numbering System Guide.
I suppose there could be a case where a lower model next gen card performs better than a high end previous gen card. The GeForce FX comes to mind, as I bet a 6600 could likely vastly outperform even the 5900 in certain DX9 software. The 6 to 7 series and xx00 to x1x00 series wasn't much of a jump in technololgy.
I can see this occuring again when dx10 arrives.

Re: The Notebook GPU Numbering System Guide.
I wouldn't suggest a sticky since it would clutter up the forum with loads of usefull stickies. But perhaps the mods should create a single sticky containing all info from stickies, including this one

i think the first bit is just a roman numeral (ie x stands for 10)
ie for the *800 series -
9800 (9th generation)
x800 (10th generation)
x1800 (11th generation
