which card will perform better old Geforce Fx5200 or Intel’s new GMA 900. Reason I am asking this Is, I am thinking of buying a laptop to run Engineering applications (ProE) and they work OK on my desktop with FX5200. will they also work on GMA 900 cause I don’t wanna spend lot of money for a laptop with a proper 3d card.
