AMD processes started x64 processing features and it’s video card has named as ATI cards. By performance, ATIs are tend to be faster than Intel video cards but less energy consuming than nVidia. nVidia cards are originally created for gaming desktops and after new type of laptop so called “The Gaming Laptop” manufactures started to intergrate nVidia chips into laptops. But because of it’s faster performance most of laptop design can’t handle the tempature. And because of that a lot of laptop models with nVidia chips giving problems to the owner after a year or two. Lastly the Intel video cards. Intel design low power consuming Video Cards for laptops. They gave pretty stable performance. But slower than the ATI and nVidia cards. You can rely more into Intel computer for basic usage. But if you are planning the “The Gaming Computer” the for sure desktops are good.
