    So I'm possibly getting it in september-october.

    I'm almost sure to get the core unit from gentech.

    But here are my questions

    1. What is the brand of HDD you get with the 5400 RPM from gentech? The 7200 is the seagate but....


    2. Is this ram compatible ?

    3. How does the 8600M GT performs in games? I mean, things like oblivion, fear and stuff. 3DMARK givesi t a pretty low score due to the DDR2 VRAM but...

    Thanks!!!
