    gragh card: dual 9800m GTX in sli :)
    hard drive: 3*500G in RAID 0

    I never get this but people who always get their hands first on a new system that everyone is awaiting the benchmarks for, always do the wrong benchmarks. Everyone is awaiting the 3dmark06 score or Crysis score but u can never get it, instead u get a vantage score or pcmark score first.

    Might want to put 177.98 on so you can run PhysX on your GPUs. You'll get a sick 3D Mark Vantage score that way.

    3D Mark 06 is widely recognized, however 3D Mark Vantage represents a better synthetic benchmark of a true gaming experience. Ya'll might want to start getting familiar with it's scores.

    Except doing that makes it almost impossible to compare scores between nvidia and radeon.... which again puts 3dmark06 as a stander benchmark.

    Well as far as I can tell the 9800 GTX Sli option does not significantly improve performance over the 9800M GT Sli, but I could be wrong.IMO not worth all the extra money.

    No it´s only 112 SP´s vs 96 SP´s which the 9800m GT and 8800m GTX has. Not worth the money in my opinion.

    I have been wondering that same thing....Is it worth the extra $$$ to get the gtx sli vs the gt sli??

    We are talking about $600 upgrade for the GTX vs GT....is it really worth it?? :confused:

    Absolutely not worth it. Take that 600$ and put it towards future upgrades that actually could be considerer ed upgrades or towards a entire new system.

    Your choice, but there isn't anyone who has shown that the 9800m gtx is even worth getting over a 9800 gt.

    I would wait for some scores, maybe 3DMARK06 scores(these benchmarks scores do not really give any idea of in game performance) just for comparison, maybe some game benchmarks would really help out better.
    If you could just wait till we get more of an idea what we are dealing with, but hey it's your money and you want to go balls to the walls, I say go for it.
    BUT $600 is $600.
    Me personally I did not have the extra money for the GTX (also couldn't wait)

    You may want to wait a bit to see how the OCZ Whitebook will perform.

    Well, the way I see it...if I'm going to spend $3600 on a laptop then an extra $600 isn't that much more for a future proof machine (assuming that GTX is a significant performance boost over GT).

    Why would he need to wait on the GTS, when it's half the shaders of the GTX and 32 less shaders than the GT?

    9800m GTS has 64 SP´s, 9800m GT has 96 SP´s it is like an 8800m GTX. Where the 9800m GTS has a 600 MHz core as opposed to 8800m GTS which has a 500 MHz Core.

    Well those 3870 Crossfire didn´t even surpass my 8800m GTX SLI in Crysis, so who cares about a 15000 3D Mark score when they don´t beat my XPS M1730 :) NP9262 is a beast of a laptop.

    What's up with the 9800M GTX in SLi? I see very few posts with benchmarks on this one, especially 3dMark06 and Crysis benchs.

    So I m the testing phase for Crysis Warhead for my my youtube channel and I have to say I have mixed feelings. Lets start with DX10. Here the game gets higher maximum FPS but also lower minimum FPS. In Original Crysis at 1650x1050 with all high settings I get minimum 35fps an average of 45-50 and maximum of close to 60fps. Now with Crysis Warhead all on high I get much higer maximum of well over 60fps but also much lower minimum that can drop clost to the 30fps line. Now I ve also tested Warhead in DX9 and here is a shock. All settings to high at WSXGA I get an average of 60fps!!!! Average!!! when I turn 2xAA I get 45fps. Seeing Crysis at super smooth magical 60fps is amazing but then again there is a noticeable graphics decrease, so I m gonna try to tweak that DX10 settings.

    I m game playing but I do have a very good eye for the FPS. There was only 2-3fps difference between my and FRAPS. and since FRAPS takes some power out I would say I m pretty good at judging framerates from gameplay.
    I ll run FRAPS in a sec though to have the ultimate proof ;)
