    I've checked there, but am hearing different things about the ones used the in Studio laptops, just wanting some clarification. The 3650 is a hair faster on that website, but people are saying different about the ones used in Studios?

    idk about the stats from that website, ive heard people say it isnt very reliable, but i know a lot of people on here have said the DDR3 version of the 8600m GT in the 1530 is better than the 3650 in the studio.
