    Hello!

    Im waiting for buying my laptop. Since dx10 is coming sooner or later in laptops, how long do you think I will have to wait to get a $1300 laptop with any 8xxx Nvidia graphics card? Will this card be better than the actual Go 7600?

    thanks!

    The card will be faster yes. For that price you wont get santa rosa laptop with a good graphics card for a while. Up until the Asus A8jp came out there were no real good gaming laptops for that price. I dont think you will get one this year and if you do it will be cut down in quality.

    Looks very HDR'ish I would suggest at least an X1700 or 7700 preferably a 7950GTX or X1900.

    You should just wait and see what happens.It's too soon for such price speculations.
