sorry i'm on my ppc6700 and can't browse all those reviews what battery life and doom 3 benchmarks are there?
I'm looking for the best value in a notebook, but it seems difficult to follow the latest and greatest in every company. So far I have found these companies 'flagship' gaming notebooks are: Dell: M170 and soon M1710 ($1800-$3000+) Sager 5950: ($3000+) HP/Compaq: No gamer notebooks! Alienware: M7700 ($2300+(+(+))) Can anyone with more knowledge of IBM, Acer, Asus, Fujitsu, etc, etc. fill in any high end gamer notebooks and approximate prices? Searching each site...
Sorry for the slight offtopic, but how bad does the PSU affect (or effect?) the performance of the GPU? I know that Nvidia has the powermizer, my old laptop had that as well, but I was able to kick it up to max on battery power. When I get a m170 or m1710 will I only be able to pull max framerates when plugged into an outlet? What's the difference in frames between unplugged/90w/130w
How long did you have to wait? From my small understanding (2 days of intensive research) I didn't think 30-40% off XPS deals came around often at all if ever.
I posted something similar to this in it's own thread in another forum so sorry if this is too much of a rehash; I figure this is a better thread to get a response. I am looking to spend around 2000 dollars on a laptop that should have at minimum a 7800GTX and WUXGA screen. I'd also like to get the best bang for my buck, and right now it looks like I can configure a $2000 M170 and pay only around 1800 on it using a 10% coupon and 35 of 300. I don't know if the M1710...
Specifically for the XPS Notebooks. I'm looking to buy the M170, or possibly the M1710 when it is released and I have been wondering how often it is that better deals than the standard 10% come out for these. I've found there was a 30% coupon code back in november, and another thread here has a bare bone M170 deal for 1300 or so back on April 7th. How often do these deals come up? I'm thinking like 20%+ off or $500 or better. I'm curious how long I might have to wait
