    I have the 2.2ghz MBP with the 128 meg video card just for information purposes. Here are the Hardware specs as I don't think they have been posted.

    GPU Core Speed = 375
    GPU Memory Speed = 502

    GPU runs about 66 degrees Celcius at idle. Seems kind of high to me.

    These were taken using the NTune software in Windows Vista.

    Also for reference, I got a 3D Mark 2006 score around 2750.

    That's interesting. Someone over at MacRumors got a reading of the following for the clock speeds:

    2d:
    283 MHZ Core
    297 MHZ Mem

    3d:
    470 MHZ Core
    635 MHZ Mem
