    Hi, I'd like to know which notebooks have this Nvidia Geforce 9600M GT, the DDR3 version. If you can add the 9700M GT to the list as well, that would be great. Anything higher than that won't make my budget I'm afraid :s
    (no USA only models please, aim at the European market)

    -Zepto Nox got a 9650gt yeah but it's like €300 more expensive than the Acer Aspire 7730 (which is only €1000 ; I'm going for this one, unless I find something with a better GPU for less than €200-250 more)

    -Toshiba Qosmio G50 is the only one available here :( 18,4" screen... bah. 9700m gts... yieha. But it's like €1400-1500 and I'm paying for the screen as well, so I don't really feel like paying more for something I'm not perfectly happy with :s Although that card is ownage :eek:

    - HP dv5 isn't customizable here, the 'high-end' (cough) model here got a 9200.
    The DV7 1030eb got a 9600m gt but I don't know which DDR type, if anyone can claim this one for me that would be great! I might consider this one if it's got DDR3...

    The only one that feels like an upgrade, for a reasonable price is the Toshiba G50... But that screen just kills it all, why isn't a better configured X300 ( or at least a F50) available here :(

    Any more you can think of?
    Thanks y'all!
