Dual 5870. It's much faster but not disproportionately more expensive.

Depends. SSD = faster, HDD = cheaper. HDD's are fairly quick already, but an SSD is undeniably faster.

Dual 5870 is faster and newer. Unless you need to save money, it's the obvious winner.

If by "alienware monitor" you mean an Alienware desktop monitor, yes, you can (you will not be able to connect one laptop to another laptops display, but I don't think that's what you were asking). A normal (non-Alienware-branded) computer monitor from a different brand would be just as good and probably cheaper. I don't know much about the 260m, unfortunately.

Your language is fine! No problem.

 

5870's are definitely the way to go for the m17x. On the drives if money isn't a problem and smaller storage doesn't bother you go SSD, if you need more storage or want to save money go with the raid option. On the m15x it's a toss up most sites and benchmarks I've seen show the 260m as a more powerful card than the 5850, but the 260m doesn't have Direct X 11 capability where the 5850 does and a lot of games are already DX11 and you're going to start seeing a lot more now that both ATi and Nvidia have cards that support it.

 

tnx for your attention

one thing dual ati 4870 beter than 1 ati 5870 or not?

 

tnx
you are good person
mercy (to my language = moteshakeram)

 

Thanks for your attention.

 

Dual 4870s are a bit faster than a single 5870.

However, a single 5870 has support for DirectX 11 (and thus future games), will use less power for a longer battery life and less heat, and I believe that if you buy a single 5870 now you can buy a second 5870 later and stick it in the laptop for a dual 5870 solution.

If it were me, I'd buy the single 5870, since I like tinkering and wouldn't mind opening up the laptop a 6 months or a year from now to stick another 5870 in.

But if all you want is speed and don't plan on upgrading the laptop on your own later, buy the dual 4870's since they're faster.

Of course, dual 5870's are even faster, by a lot, but they're more expensive.
