    information on the new nvidia video cards, known as the g80 series have been leaked and have been posted at www.megagames.com or the link below.

    what i want to know is, they will most likely make laptop versions of these cards, after the desktop versions are released. But do you think theres a chance, that dell wont have these the laptop versions of these cards in their current inspiron line because of the chasis? would dell have to change the design of the e1705, e1505 to accomodate these new dx10 cards? mehhh cuz id really want to change my geforce 7900 gs to a 8800 gs in my e1705 if dell gave me the chance, but this wont be for a while.

    interesting... what makes u think dell is going to have these? and do these dx10 gfx cards still play dx9 games at the same level as the older ones? and i can see why i haven't heard about these with the x1900 and the 7950's just coming out... it would totally hurt their sales...
