    Hallo,

    How big is the difference in battery life between Dell 9300 with Go6800 and X300 option?
    Does X300 is very weak card? Which card can be compared to X300 - radeon 9500, 9600 or what?

    im not sure what the battery life of one with a x300 is but on mine with 6800 and a 6 cell battery I get 1 3/4hrs. Gaming and around 2 1/2 hrs. just doing basic stuff like using the web or taking notes.

    I would like to hear what the other setup is getting also.

    The 6800 is a MUCH more powerful card. It can basically handle any game thats out there. The x300 borrow memory, making it quite slower.
