    no :(

    If they had it here in the states I would've gotten it instead of the 6860 just for its portability, although it probably wouldn't get the 7188 3Dmark06 score that my COMPLETELY STOCK 6860 gets

    Well, today I ended up going out and buying one, stock it got a 3583 3dmark06 score, not what I was hoping for :( . So I returned it. Looks nice but doesnt come close to 6860.

    That score looks like a DDR2 2600.

    I was going to pick this up as a secondary unit when I want to be mobile, but not with that benchmark. Not worth it IMO.

    Best buy claims it has a 2600 XT in it, but I checked everywhere and the system it self only says 2600, I checked everywhere on the system, no mention of the XT anywhere. I think bestbuy may have made an error :eek:

    Were you able to get the GPU clock info by chance ?? Or maybe download and install any of he ATI tools to tell you the exact card and clock info ?? It would be really nice if it were a HD2600XT. God Bless :)

    My guess is it should get:

    3dMark06: 4400
    PCMark05: 4600

    ... if the specs are right.

    The 6831 got 6800 out of the box, some driver updates improved it.
