    I asked myth and they told me to not bet on a 7970m laptop being with me on the 22nd of May. Then again, I don't think I need more than the 675m for WoL/HotS/LoL/D3. Don't forsee myself playing anything more.

    one thing is you receiving the laptop due to the strong demand the other thing is when they start shipping

    Info from MySN confirms end of May as most probable availability date of 7970m.

    It seems to be geared towards a late May, although I have heard May 18th be tossed around a bit.

    Yeah, I think some who are really early in the queue could be looking at shipping times around the 18th of May.

    Well I'd like to build a NP9270/P270WM with a dual 7970 in crossfire on a reseller site, and then pre-order it. From what I can tell this option will exist at some point. But no reseller has it in their configuration yet.

    Any reseller want to take my money? Xotic? Mythologic?
