    How much more would a laptop with a 860m cost compared to one with a 765m?

    Hey guys,

    I considering whether to wait for the nvidia 800s to be released, or to just buy something like this: Metabox W355ST - Clevo W355STQ - 15.6 inch Gaming laptop notebook with GTX 765M graphics for school. I read that Clevo has a new line-up of laptops with the new cards to be released next month. Would it be worth waiting for these new laptops? When in February would they be available for sale? How much more would they cost?

    Thanks for helping!

    If you can hold off until the new GPU's are released then I would wait, if worse comes to worse and it is just a rebranded 765M GTX you can still always get one with the "old" GPU and probably at a reduced price, resellers like to get rid of old stock.
