    Hey im just wondering what was the power of the montevina processor compared to


    Intel Core i7 Quad (Nehalem) 920 2.66GHz 8MB Cache 130W

    which one of these would compare ?

    ~Intel® P8700 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 2.53GHz w/3MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 25 watt
    ~Intel® P8700 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 2.53GHz w/3MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 25 watt
    ~Intel® P8800 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 2.66GHz w/3MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 25 watt ( + 55 )
    ~Intel® T9600 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 2.8GHz w/6MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 35 watt ( + 130 )
    ~Intel® P9700 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 2.8GHz w/6MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 25 watt ( + 165 )
    ~Intel® Q9000 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Quad 2.0GHz w/6MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB ( + 170 )
    ~Intel® T9900 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 3.06GHz w/6MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 35 watt ( + 360 )
    ~Intel® Q9100 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Quad 2.26GHz w/12MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB ( + 710 )
    ~Intel® X9100 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo Extreme 3.06GHz w/6MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB (Overclockable up to 3.53GHz!) ( + 710 )
    ~Intel® QX9300 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Quad 2.53GHz w/12MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB (Overclockable up to approx. 3.0GHz!) ( + 915 )



    I was thinking of buying a NP5797, but I have no clue about the processor .




    Also . Can anyone tell me around when the M980NU will be coming out ? Im making the decision on buying the laptop around the 11th - 14th . Hopefully its out by then, thanks .




    And finally . Is the 9280 really as ugly as it looks ? I was looking at pictures fo it, and it looks like a trashcan . It would look better with an xotic pc skin all over from the lcd, to the surface, but then it would exceed 2.6k, my limit is 2.5k

    Thanks, everyone .
