    Well, really my Son's Christmas present.. :eek:

    ..and really not an old FX, mine is still clunking along waiting for Skyrim.

    What grabed me about this laptop, like my FX at BB, was the price to power ratio.

    For $1,080 @ amazon ; TOSHIBA Qosmio X775-Q7380 Notebook Intel Core i5 2430M(2.40GHz) 17.3" 6GB Memory DDR3 1333 640GB HDD 7200rpm DVD Super Multi NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M

    Where are the gaming Gateways? :rolleyes:

    Yeah, a bit of sarcasm on my end.

    If the Tosh holds up as well as my FX and nvidia used correct solder on the rebadged 460 , things should be good.

    Reordered, better price and found coupon, $1,020.
