What Graphics card does it have? I would have thought that was quite important

I've had the Asus G55 with Thunderbolt for about a year now. Both USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt devices from BMD work with it. For the record though, I run Windows 7.

Mike,
Glad I'm not the only one
I'm real happy with it do far.
Any luck with a thunderbolt drive?
I tried the seagate . It connects but in the device manager it says
it can't aquire the resources .
I'm wondering if sacrificing something like blue tooth or internal audio might free up enough to make it work
