Having launched the all-conquering GeForce GTX 295 amid much fanfare, NVIDIA has chosen to quietly slip out a trio of new mobile parts at CES '09.
The parts make up NVIDIA's GeForce 100M series of mobile GPUs, and take shape as the gamer-orientated GeForce GT 130M, and multimedia-orientated GeForce G110M and GeForce G105M.
According to NVIDIA's in-house benchmarks, the GeForce GT 130M is said to be in the region of 17 per cent quicker in 3DMark Vantage when compared to its predecessor the GeForce 9600M GT. Lenovo has already adopted the chip as part of its IdeaPad Y650 notebook and plans to ship in March 2009.
The all-new trio's specifications breakdown as follows:

Certainly nothing to give AMD's Mobility Radeon HD 4800 a run for its money, but a suitable performance bump over existing GeForce 9000M-series products.
