    it's about the same as the 8600GT DDR2, which the sager has

    The card is heavily underclocked. If it was set to the ATI recommended settings, I bet it would be much closer to a 8600GT DDR3.

    I'd recommend the 8510p. I can't seem to find a better performing laptop for the money. :)

    It has it all, looks, quality, and performance.
