Video CPU Power consumption - Intel 4500MHD vs. Quadro FX370

I'm considering 2 different beasts.....M2400 and the E4300

 

Intel 4500HD won't suffice you gaming needs, but it will consume significantly less power than Quadro FX370 (work station graphic card)

 

I've no hard numbers but I know Intel will have the lower power consumption.

I hear ya. Screen size - 13 vs 14 will come into play as well.
Just trying to get a rough idea on a 6 cell battery on both platforms...are we talking like 20 minutes more power on a Intel integrated or closer to 1 hr....


The other thing I've yet to see is will the Intel when docked do dual 1900x1200 display.

 

This post may help. It considers power consumption under idle / low usage. The difference under heavy GPU usage may be more like 10W.
