Oh one more Q~

 

I chose a 512 rather than 1gb (cause of pricing) and im guessin it will hinder my gaming experiance alot or only just a little bit?

 

It won't matter that much at all, unless your running really high demanding games like maybe, GTA4, Crysis, ArmA 2 etc.

Like eversman said, makes a difference on high demanding games, however I found that using a 1GB card definetely boosted my tf2 performance by a lot, which was really great. However I don't have that 1GB card (sold it and got a cheaper one :d)

Its determined by the resolution of the game, not the detail.

Dont expect to be able to max any of those games on 1920x1080 and have a playable framerate, the gtx 260m is the desktop equivalent of a 9800GT, hurray for nvidia naming schemes.

It's more like a 9400GT.

I understand..but how do you figure this out??

 

Mobile series are always weaker than their desktop counterparts, theres a reason why laptops can be so thin, one of them being smaller and weaker graphics card, this specific card you can read about here:

yeah I knew that but I didnt know where you got your comparison to the 9800 GTX..now I do..

And it does have slightly better clock speed..so its slightly better than a 9800GT..so im incline to say better thn a 9400...
