    Im thinking of ordering the new m15x with base model i7 processor and 260gtx card, with 4gb 1333mhz ram..

    If anyone has the same or similar specs can you please tell me your 3dmark06 / or 3dmark 05 score? I'll be mostly judging by that.

    I Thank You in advance.

    The M17x with SLi graphics cards will beat the M15x in nearly all games.

    You're going to decide on a purchase by going off of 3dmark06 scores?

    Thats only true if hes going to get SLI cards on the M17x. With single card performance the M15x would win. And basing a laptop purchase on 3D mark 06 scores is futile. Consider other factors such as size, weight, screen quality, ect. If all your worried about is 3D performance buy a desktop and save yourself a grand.
