    The point is that from these tests 8700 gt is not so powerful than 8600gt...your opinion?

    Compared to a desktop 8600GT, no. But compared to a laptop 8600m GT, yes.

    OV10stang i agree but i thought that a 8700gt can beat a 8600 desktop or on par with...
    Anyway this laptop is stylish and powerful...i want it!!!
    The only annoying thing is that i prefer a 15" version...does it exist?

    That looks weird s hell. I mean, th 8700Gt should perform way better than that.
    Then again, I don`t really care about that, now that the 8800M GTX is almost out :)

    Wait a month or so, you'll see all kinds of new options, from all manufacturers, even in 15.4".
