    Maybe it was subject to change at the time when they wrote the assembly guide. :)

    Yea, I think they left it out until they know exactly what fits and what does.

    Those 4 fans are huge, my v6 fan is like a third of the size of ONE of those! The vent looks pretty cool though ;)

    That laptop looks like it will be a beast so any confirmation on whether it will use GDDR2 or GDDR3?

    It is using 512MB DDR2 SDRAM. The laptop is released this week, so expect a review by Friday, I suppose. If I get mine soon enough (I pulled the trigger on it a while ago :D) I may write it!

    oh alex you pulled that trigger already? man I am ready to fire away but since i've been waiting on this for over a month now i may just push my wait back another week to see if a 8700m gt can work with it but if not i still like this as a mobile dtr because i will never be without an outlet long.

    the 8700M will not be compatible. The C90 is MXMII and the 8700M is rated greater than 25 Watts (35 to be exact). I like it for the possibility of upgrading to the 9xxx series.
