ATI Mobility FireGL V5000 vs ATI Mobility FireGL V5250 vs ATI Mobility FireGL V5200
ATI Mobility FireGL V5000
► remove from comparison
ATI Mobility FireGL V5000 is based on the ATI Mobility Radeon X700 middle class video card for notebooks and is designed especially for professional applications. Certified drivers für professional applications like AutoCAD, AutoDesk Inventor, Bentley Microstation, Catia, ICEM Surf, Solidworks, Discreet 3dsmax, Alias Maya, Alias Studio Tools, Avid SoftImage|XSI and Avid Express DV are the main difference.
ATI Mobility FireGL V5250
► remove from comparison
The AMD ATI Mobility FireGL V5250 is a professional graphics adapter for notebooks. The core is based on the ATI Mobility Radeon X1700, which was a middle class graphics card at the time of offering. With modded Catalyst drivers, the V5250 can be modded to a X1700 with a better game performance but worse application performance.
The features of the card are identical to the ATI Mobility Radeon X1700.
ATI Mobility FireGL V5200
► remove from comparison
ATI Mobility FireGL V5200 is based on ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 for notebooks as probably the same chip was used. Only the Bios is different and allows the use of professional drivers (for CAD and 3D applications optimized). The standard Catalyst drivers can only be installed in a modded version. Therefore the V5200 becomes a X1600 (with the same performance). The professional drivers show a clearly reduced performance in games.
