    Still new to the laptop game... 3dmark06 is reporting the gpu as gtx170m. Don't tell me the 260m is just a rebadged card... Thanks.

    It was originally to be named the GTX 170M, and ORB hasn't yet updated from what Nvidia originally told them.

    You should ask further questions in the G51 thread, instead of creating new ones.
