    wait... but if you read the "tech specs" tab it still says 8400GS could it be a typo?

    My bet it's a mistake... Everywhere else on the HK website you see 8400. Never trust Dell configurator during the first days, remember ;)

    Might be some special model only dell sells. No idea what the performance will be. Between the 8400M GT and the 8600M GS maybe?

    No, as mentioned a number of times before, this has been up on some Dell sites since the the m1330 launched and it is clearly a typo. No 8600v exists as all 8000's have an "m" extension. Also... as much as you READ it, it doesn't exist when you configure it.
