    I made this topic because i want to be more specific and only related with the videocard. I want to know if this videocard can have this type of memory (GDD2R), a technical response can be good.

    The question has been pretty much answered now in the other thread.

    Who cares if its been asked before,you all make such a big deal about this. Instead you will post 100 times or so about this is a double post or other crap. Just answer the guy and maybe the post would have been shorter.

    Its not about that, Its about reducing threads. Its about teaching the new members to stop creating unecessary threads. As you can see the other thread has already answered his question. We shouldn't create threads that ask detail questions about a laptop when a more general thread to post these questions exist.
