About graphic cards?!?

[denis.tercier]

Hi,
Reading different posts, I noticed that the choice of the graphic cards seems to be important. I’m looking for a new laptop and thinking of a mobile workstation (I work essentially on the go so a desktop is not an option). I found some good specs ont the new Lenovo ThinkPad p53. But don’t know how to choose the right specs for the graphic card. (in this case, a Nvidia Quadro T1000)
Any help would be welcomed.
Thanks!

GPU) performance, which means a discrete graphics card in the computer (e.g. Nvidia or AMD) rather than builtin Intel graphics in the CPU. It …

Yes! Thanks so much!

With a laptop, don’t just look at the GPU, look at detailed reviews on the thermals and case temperatures if you plan to use it on your lap rather than on a desk.

Yes! Of course. It’s why I may choose a Lenovo p53. There’s quite a lot of place in the case. But de la there’s not a lot of complete reviews about this guy! Thanks for the advice BTW!
