    Hello everyone :)

    I decided to buy the Dell Inspiron 5010 I5 460M 3MB cache, 4GB RAM but i found that there are two graphics card available and i searched online and didn't find a clear answer. Some said that the 4560 is better than the 5470 while some said the opposite. I searched on amd and i guess the 5470 looks better. i dun need it for games, i need it for 3D graphical drawings and maybe for one game which is flight simulator 2004.

    i also searched here for the benchmark test Computer Games on Laptop Graphic Cards - Notebookcheck.net Tech
    But it looks like the HD 4650 is much better than the HD5470. am i right or not :D ?

    Thanx a lot for your time :)

    the HD4650 is a 128-bit video card with 320 pipelines. By contrast, the 5470 is a 64-bit card with 80 pipelines. The HD4650 is the winner hands down. It will render everything faster than the 5470.
