what is the difference between GT540M and GT 630M?

[RON28]

does anyone here own a laptop with graphic card GT 630M? if yes then can you please do me a favour by just posting your fps with following games at medium settings with native resolution?

BF3, MW3, MAFIA II, GTA IV, DIRT 3 and yes last but not the least CRYSIS 2

here in this review, MR. Prahlad said that there is difference between GT540M and GT630M while playing. But when i checked notebookcheck, its nothing but a renamed version of GT 540M

yes it is just a renamed or can say a newer version of 540M having no difference is performance.

Introducing AMD’s Radeon 7000M and NVIDIA’s GeForce 600M Mobile GPUs. check GT630M & GT540M columns.

There is very less difference, GT630M gives just a few FPS more than GT540M. In some games the 630 gives less than 540 too.

a lowend GPU with a new architecture will perform same as the last gen GPU. maybe increment of a few FPS at max. this is not worth to invest million in R&D. so best is to rename is and keep selling same.

Bummer. Was holding off my laptop purchase till next gen graphics arrived. Now no point. Trinity/Ivy Bridge only reasons for waiting now. Those too not very enticing.

GT 630 is just an entry level graphic card for gaming.. Doesn't give very high fps at max settings in BF3 or any of the above mentioned.. Gives around 18-22 in most of the mentioned games at max settings...
