    The only way to know exactly which GeForce MX150 GPU the laptop ships with is to access GPU-z application where the Device IDs for both variants are different. But the proper way is to label them as either 10W or 25W GeForce MX150 on either the packages or the support site itself. Buying the incorrect model would basically get you 20-25% performance deficit in a chip which is already not that great in terms of raw GPU performance. 

    These two variants are differentiated by their device ID of ‘10DE 1D10’ and ‘10DE 1D12’, the former of which is the standard (full-speed) GPU, and the latter runs with lesser clock speeds and a lower power draw.

    These are the two listed --- nVidia GeForce N16S-GTR 2G or N17S-G1 2G. Could be either depending on the vendor. Jack E/NJ
