    I don't have any screens, but I did have the 7950GT in my desktop a few months ago. It is a very powerful card, I was running all my games at full settings no problem. This includes games such as FEAR, HL2, etc. Awesome card, I only got rid of it to get an 8800 series card.

    7950GTX is only an overclocked 7900GTX, no extra pixel shaders whatsoever.

    Honestly, this is a silly question. And you can't wait until you get the notebook to see how games'll look on it? That was always a nice surprise for me; when I got my A8Jm last July I got the chance to be blown away by how much better the games looked.

    Likewise, when I got my current notebook, I was able to be impressed with how much the Go 6150 did with so little (2 pipelines and no dedicated memory).

    Games are going to run at maximum settings at native resolution; you're buying the fastest single mobile GPU on the market. If you want to know how your games will run, look at publicity shots for them. But don't start threads requesting people post screenshots when it's really just because you're too impatient to wait for your notebook and too lazy to look things up yourself.

    If you already play the game, set it to all the max settings on your current gpu. It will look the same, just a lot better fps.
