    Hi guys , i'm gonna get a new laptop in a month or 2 , so i'm pretty deciding on what type of comp /brand and stuff would i want ... i was actually deciding that 17 inch laptop would be best , but of course the weight and everything increases : for example dell M1710 that weigh around 10 pounds ( after adding the battery and stuff ) so i wanted some light laptop that can game , i was thinking of the Sony SZ series , but it has only geforce 7400 and 13inch , can it game ? or you guys have other laptops to recomend me

    15" - Asus S96J (x1600)
    14" - Asus W3J (x1600 ), Asus A8Jm (go7600), A8Ja (x1600), Zepto 6614 (go7600)
    13" - Asus W7J (go7400), Sony SZ (go7400)

    If you plan on gaming get the x1600 or go7600.

    For 17" notebooks, get the HP DV8000t/9000t with Nvidia 7600 GPU. Or if you're filthy rich or a hardcore gamer, cinsuder the Dell e1705 or the Alienware m9700 or Alineware mALX.
