    There's a bunch of benchmarks floating around in the forums. It's the fastest 15.4" form graphics card you will find with directx10

    Also consider the Sager NP2090, it has a 8600GT as well and can be had for less than the Dell. Only thing is that there is a long wait for shipment.

    The Dell is actually currently the cheapest notebook in USD with the 8600MGT. Last I checked you could get it with the 8600MGT for under $800. As for the power of the 8m series, check out this thread.

    There is a thread called "8600m GT screenshot thread" You should use the search tool and/or look at the sticky's before posting a new thread.

    (These are overclocked, just an fyi!)

    3dmark06: 3821
    3dmark05: 7216
    3dmark2001: 26360

    I'm sure I could get higher on all three easily, but that's for another day.

    These were all done on my 1520, btw.
