    Ok, so I know that the G50vt-A1 has a 9800M GT, even though it says it only has a 9800M GS graphics card. So, my question is, does the G50vt-B1 also actually have a 9800M GT or is it a GS like it's posted as???

    Does anyone have this laptop and able to comfirm that the graphics card is better than posted?

    Thanks

    GPU-Z and other software identifies it as 9800M GT, but it has 64 shaders and a bit less clock speed than GTS cards, thus making them real 9800m GS cards.

    All G50vt laptops have 9800M GS cards.
