    Not so old, did you see the hd3800 series? 320 stream processors, 512mbddr3 and 256bit memory!

    Wow already up to 1600$ I knew it would not stay at 1500$ for long, I really want one of these. Whats funny is when it was 1500$ they said MSRP 1600$ with 100$ instantly off, now that its 1600$ they say you get 150$ off instantly but jumped the MSRP all the way up to 1750$? lol MSRP is not supposed to change. Goes to show they make the numbers up.

    This is the perfect laptop for me, alas I wont get one. I just hope when time comes to replace my faithfull C90 they have something simlar (15" with dual hdd's, powerfull gpu, cheap price ect)

    Nice to know, but until a real benchmark shows up, things are still pretty much "I believe" or " I think" ...

    I have no doubts that the 3850 and the 3870 will beat my 8700M GT by a large margin...

    Only the 3870 may beat the 8800M GTX on bechs, but I doubt that on games the 8800M GTX will fall.

    Lets hope that this time nVidia stop playing with the lasers and leave all 128SPs free to 9800M GTX use. Only that will give 1/4(25%) more shader power on 9800M GTX VS 8800M GTX.

    ;)

    Which is what I`m hoping.
    Hell a 3870 MXM module would sound nice if the 9800M GTX won`t prove to be a better deal.
    We all have to play the waiting game though, and it sucks.
