    I am expecting to finally receive my 6500tse this Monday. However, many of you have been privilege to be able already be tinkering around with your new laptops with either the 8400M or 8600M GPU. Since so many people are interested in the new GPU's it would be helpful to see some performance test feedback from people. Lets get some numbers from 3DMark, games such as Counter Strike:Source, World of Warcraft, or any other games you like. I know I would specifically to hear about how Counter Strike:Source performance under the new GPU.

    Please be sure you list your main specs of your CPU, GPU (8400 or 8600), memory, obviously the game and the graphics settings, also whether you are running on the HP Vista image or if you did a clean install.

    Lets make this a central place for performance reports on the new x500 series laptops.

    CS source is quite an old game, i think both cards will run it just fine.
