thats still overpriced for an outdated technology notebook.

One should look towards the better dual videocard notebooks:
- Arima W840 DI (aka. OCZ Whitebook, AW m17, etc...) .... new 17" single/dual ATI 3870 and dual HDD
- .Toshiba X305 .... 17" with SLI 9800M GTS .... processor could be better
- Clevo D901C (aka. Sager NP9262) .... remains to be king of notebooks... 17" with single/dual 9800M GTS/GT/GTX, uses desktop quad-core CPUs, three internal HDD, and the best notebook cooling design to date.

 

But that notebook is still very advance for the features in it.

 

it still performs well, but for the price, you can do much better going with the Arima or the Clevo.

 

still better if were spent on a sager high end system

 

i own one and would trade it in a heartbeat imo for the 901c..

 

I would trade my $3000+ D900K for half of a D901C.

 

We have a deal?

 

as long as its the later revision that has a 8800M or 9800M with a quad-core...

 

^^^ lol.. i wish to this day though i would have ordered the 901c instead of the 1730 at that time they were pretty much the same price to.. i could have went either way and i like the dell dont get me wrong but i wish i went with the 901...

 

Well... a barebones with Q6600 and 9800M GTX would still cost me less than 2500. Who said anything about HDD, or RAM?

Didn't you get a really good deal on the M1730 though, zfactor?

 

yeah i did but the 901c was at a smokin deal at the time also

 

Doesn't seem like a bad deal with the two 320s and Blue ray with dual 8800s. For those of you interested, here ya goes.

 

you still trolling i see.

its a great system still performs in the top 5

 

hahahaa lol

 

I guess you havent been around this forum long enough.... you'll get used to it.

I will admit that around 2K this 8800M SLI notebook is a good deal, but it has to go up against more up-to-date rigs for the same prices:
- .Toshiba X305 ...... 17" Montevina with 9800M GTS SLI
- Arima W840 DI (aka. .Alienware M17, OCZ Whitebook, etc..) ..... 17" Montevina with dual ATI 3870

cant lose with going with any of those 3 systems... but the Arima seems to have the edge since it fully support mobile quad-cores.

 

I agree I would get a different lappy for 2K
