This page seems to be about software, not hardware.

but it doesn't contain information about who has what. And it contains
incorrect information (unless the bug is specific to Debian):

  NVidia NVS 160M

I have the same card and I can tell you that the nouveau driver is
broken with it. See the bug mentioned above:
