Is ati radeon 3200 equal with nvidia geforce 8500 gt in terms of gaming performance?

My desktop runs well (especially with games) with an nvdia geforce 8500 GT and i'm considering buying a 17-inch laptop and the fastest I could get in the market right now(that suits my budget) is the one with an ati radeon 3200 graphics card. Will these one equally perform with my desktop in terms of gaming?

Ive got an 8500 Gt and it's amazing, running crysis and stuff. You can also buy custom made laptops that will insert the graphic card of your choice. The ATI raedon is not that good compared to the NVIDIA Graphics. In terms of gaming, yeah it will run great games like crysis for example.

Not sure what your budget is, but you can get a 15" dell XPS laptop that has an 8600gt graphics card for under $1000. "The fastest in the market" for laptop graphics cards is currently triple 9400gm's in SLI from Alienware and MSI I believe at over $5000.Not sure what laptop you're looking at, but if you are planning on gaming on it I wouldn't use a radeon 3200... In fact the radeon 3200 isn't even a dedicated graphics card. It's an onboard card and it would share memory with the system - which isn't recommended for anything graphically intensive. I would definitely prefer an 8500gt to a 3200And the guy who said to get a mac is just crying cause mac's can't play games lol.
