Toshiba Satellite Pro L650-197 Pro Reviews

You would think this to be true for the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 at first glance, too. But only if you believe in the name. In truth, a Radeon HD 4000 generation GPU is behind it, to be more precise, a renamed and up clocked Mobility Radeon HD 4570. This leaves the Radeon HD 5145 bare of many features of the 5000 generation and can still "only" offer DirectX 10.1 effects, despite its name. In regards to performance, the starter GPU is very well able to display current games, like the hardware devouring Crysis or FarCry2, smoothly - but only in the lowest settings. If you don't want to make compromises here, you should disregard the Satellite Pro L650-197 and look around for a model that alternately has a HD 5650 graphic chip or in the Qosmio range, also from Toshiba.
