so I was reading about different integrated graphics in Intel's HD line...
From this page on Notebookcheck, I was surprised. It actually showed that in many cases, the 5000's performance was LESS than the 4000's.

It also said that in ULV cpu's, the clock speed of the ntegrated graphics will be limited to a certain amount of power consumption, despite not reaching near full clock speed, which would cause the 5000 to perform worse than even the 4000. Have any of you found this to be true?
I was looking at an i3-based laptop on Ebay because I need something that is more capable of video editing than my old Turion 64x2 TL-60 laptop. Well, these have two cores with double the single core performance, AND hyperthreading. I know it's not optimal, but it's what I can quickly afford, and since I have a beast custom rig back home, this would be fine for when I don't have access to it...
My question was... Have you found it true, that ULV will throttle GPU so severely that they will underperform compared to the last gen? If so, I guess I should be going with an "m" type cpu from intel, rather than a "u" ULV-type, correct?
I ask this because I want to do a LITTLE bit of gaming when I want to. I have realistic expectations of what HD 4000 can do. But if I'm gonna use integrated, I might as well go for the BEST integrated I can use (in my circumstances). And I certainly don't want to cripple it any further, obviously.
