Mobility Radeon X700: The Graphics of the Travelmate 8100

Far Cry Performance
We tested Far Cry with all the options cranked up to high. This turns out to not be such a good fit for the MRX700 Pro with 128MB of RAM. Performance falls a little short of the desktop flavor, and it is much more playable with fewer settings cranked up and running at 1024x768.

This is something like 2x as fast as the 9700 mobility, get real. It is pretty much the equivalent of a 9700 pro desktop part, however.randomman - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link
I realize that it would not be an exact comparison, but could you add some old benchies from the 9700 Mobility and 9800 M. This would give a better point of comparison than just against a desktop sys.Also are there any things available talking about the differences in power optimizations between the old 9700 and the X700?

Is there much point to the review of of a notebook graphics chip that has NO comparison to any other mobile graphics chips?Personally I find the benchmarks in this review totally useless.

the big selling feature of this over the mobile 9700 is that it provides better battery life, it is also a more powerful chip than the mobile 9700onix - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link
How do we think graphics chip on this computer will compare to the Thinkpad T43p's ATI Mobility FIRE GL V3200 (128 MB)?bobsmith1492 - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link
Yeah, I play Doom 3 on medium, 1280x1024; runs pretty well. Same processor too; P-M, but with regular DDR, OCd to 2.125.trikster2 - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link

Blech.
This is what we have been waiting for?

So, basically this performs about the same as my 9700 mobility. Yay.L3p3rM355i4h - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link
ho hum...how much does this thing weigh? Surely not as much as that brick XPS.
