    Anyone with a definitive idea of V5700 performance?

    Hi,

    I currently have a t60p and have been a diehard thinkpad user (600E, T41p), and am looking or a new 14-15inch workstation system. I primarily use autocad, rhino3d and 3ds max, and the v5200 in my thinkpad just isn't cutting it any longer. But am concerned about the performance of the V5700 gpu. Have they resolved the issues with the HD3650/V5700 in new systems? And what kind of performance can I expect vs a Quadro M570 or M770. I've been reading that it's slightly faster than the M570, but is this only conjecture?

    I'd not normally consider a dell system, but the M4400 looks to have a nice new magnesium case and has a Quadro M770 which should be heads and shoulders faster than the v5700, no?

    Thanks

    Thanks, the performance looks very solid outside of D3D.
