Alienware M17x R-1, says 9400m instead of 9400m G
I just noticed something on my Alienware that I has not noticed before. It's supposed to have 9400m G but it shows up as a 9400m.. I don't know very much about computers in general since I won this one but I wonder if this is something I should worry about? I've had quite a few problems with graphic drivers lately to get the 260M to run correctly.
Here is a picture
Please help!

my old R1 was the same just said 9400 .. its an onboard chip so technically its not a mobile card .. just a chip on the motherboard like the mini asus eee box that has the 9400 onboard:O

What D:? I want to be able to switch between the two graphic cards cuz when I am using the 260m it seems to get overheated or something. Atleast it gets very warm on the top left side of the laptop. By the way, do you know any programs so you can check the temp of your what's it called. CPU or GPU? Dunno the difference, that's how bad I am on computers.
