    Wow those are some VERY interesting scores. I think I'd be very happy with a 8700 GT to tell the truth.

    well...NVIDIA had put the 8700M GT on their web.
    sure i hope that there would be 8600 8700 and 8800 in C90s

    From what i heard, 8700GT is just a higher clocked 8600GT. Everything else is pretty much the same for both cards

    It is almost certain that the 8700M will not fit into a C90. The only one that has a chance is the 8800M, but not a very high chance.

    If you are willing to wait a month, use a 17" and pay about 200 bucks more than a G1S there is this.

    I've seen the Rock but the price makes my heart bleed, I only want to spend 800-900 which I don't even have right now but will in due time :D.

    Would someone care to tell me where I can find the differences in power consumption between the 8600, the 8600 gt, the 8700 gt, and some in the 7 series? Could you also try to explain to me the difference is battery life associated with them all?
