Radeon 9600 Mobility Vs. X1400 Mobility

Thread Starter 
Which of the two would net higher performance? I currently have the radeon 9600 in my emachines m6809 and i can play battlefield at 1280x800 with pretty playable results, and my 3dmark 05 score is around 1200. I have seen the x1400 gets about 1600 on 3dmark 05 but is that just because of the increased shader performance? How would it act in a real world situation.

What kind of FPS do you get in Battlefield 2?

Definately the X1400 which should have about the same performance of the X700 which was about 30% faster than the MR9700.

I think the X1400 would corrispond to the X600, the X1600 to the X700 and the X1800 to the X800, correct me if im wrong.

Umm ok the 9700 mobility is basicly 9600 mobility with much higher clocks, they are both 4x1 cores with 128 bit memory, the X700 mobility is an 8x1 part with faster 128 bit memory.

Also the MR X700 is a lot more than 30% faster than the MR9700. 43.6 FPS for the X700 vs 15.8 FPS for the MR9700 in Doom 3, and 24.6 FPS in Farcry UXGA res vs 13.4 FPS for the MR9700.

And finaly the X1400 is a low power variant of the X1300 and shares the same 4x1 core architecture, making it highly unlikely that it will perform as well as the X700. That said it looks like it will offer performance that is better than the X600/MR9700.

FWIW. I was told that the 3Dmark05 number on the new bunch of Acer laptop with the X1400 is about the same as my 8104 but lower than the F4005 so it's definately faster than a X600. The X1600 is actually ~40% faster than the current X700.

I found a 3dmark 2k5 score for the X1400 it's around 1630 points, the Ferrari 4005 gets around 2375 points and the TM8104 gets around 2250 points. The X600 gets around 1250 points, and the X300 gets around 1000 points if that helps. The MR9600 is the same core arcitecture as the X300 and X600, IMHO it should perform similarly IE +/- 10% to the X300.

The X1400 is also SM3.0 and has vastly improved video playback features. So at the very least the X1400 looks like a nice upgrade over Ati's last gen low/mid end GPUS for the mainstream market.

If anyone digs up anything on the X1300 I would love to see it, Ati states that the X1400 is an ultra low power GPU for the thin and light segment, I am wondering if that means performance is basicly the same between the X1300/X1400 or if the X1400 has higher clocks, they are the same core arcitecture.
