Ok, sounds good.

Also, I would move the Intel GMA X3100, 950 and 900 down to an even lower category (Honorable mentions? ). The 4500 and 4700 series should stay, though, they're actually decent.
Okay, could you do that please? I don't know very much about mobile cards either...

And guys, I would really appreciate it if you could follow in Doc's fine example and write more stuff for me to put up, or at least give me an indication of what sort of thing you'd be willing to write. I'm kind of busy this week, but after that I'd be happy to write something about overclocking for Core i7 processors.

When I get some free time at work, I'll start on a socket 775 article for the OC guide. If people could PM me their current processor specs - only if OCed, obviously - I'll include those in the article as a rough guide for any future OCers.

A few more things that need fixing:

The note: * All ATI Radeon HD 3000 series and up support DX 10.1" needs to be added to the mobile chart as well.
The 8800GTS 320MB in the desktop chart should be green, not black.
The 8800M GTS in the mobile chart should be green as well.

Great stuff. Thanks a lot for the guide. By the way, GeForce 2, 3 & 4 didn't make it to the low performance category. It would be great if you could add those also, just for nostalgia.
