    Hello,

    I was wondering on my T60P, is it worth the upgrade to get a ATI MOBILITY FireGL V5250? I believe this is a motherboard? How much will this improve video enhancement, scale 1-10.

    Thanks,

    BT60

    cost-benefit analysis would tell you that this is a waste of time. Just google the benchmark of the two GPU.

    You would get far more performance boost by doing a vidock upgrade and use an external desktop graphics card.
