    I would like to know what notebook to buy depending on the veideo card, An Amd 64 (turion or athlon) with Ati mobility x1600 or the same one with a geforce go 7300? wich one would be faster in games, would last longer (i mean not become obsolete) or even if the x700 would be better. Does anyone have a Link to performance (facts) comparisons charts?
    i like the forums and wish to help too, so i will apriciate any comments and suggestions. (not concerning to battery life nor weight plz ;))
    thnx

    I'd get the x1600, but the x700 would be fine too. But as far as a comparison chart, maybe try the first sticky thread on this forum :/

    My problem is that i want /need a notebook with an amd 64 bit (turion or athlon) AND a high end videocard like 6800 or better, but i cant find any that costs less than 2400 USD. all i have seen are from alienware and are ridiculus ($$$) 3000+ :( . Does anyone know where to get one? Or should i stay with the current asus a6k series that come with an ati x700 or x1600? I would like to know too if i should wait the release of the turion doule core 64 bits ddr2? (because of the price changes on the current ones or just to buyone. Also does anyone know about a company that ships to germany or EU? or world wide? thnx to everyone. :confused:

    I think your best bet is to go to the "What Notebook Should I Buy" forum and fill out the questionaire.
