    Hi all,


    I already have a rock xtreme 770 with 7950gtx on order but am seriously considering cancelling and grabbing a 5920 for just over half the price :) THe smaller screen is more appealing too i think.

    My question to those who already have the 5920 is this >

    How well would i be able to run games like Everquest 2, Guild Wars and CoH etc ?

    Anyone tried running stuff like Reason 3 or Ableton Live ? Would like to know how well it works with the lack of screen real estate.

    Also having read other posts re overclocking these little gems, I`d be interested to know if any of the two main overclockers (sorry forgot your names :p) run their laptops perma overclocked ?



    Cheers guys :)

    This is a little off-topic but I have to ask to ask. Is the 8600m gt on the 5920 a GDDR3?
