    I was just wondering as I am figuring out which laptop I want I just found this wicked TOSHIBA Qosmio X505-Q830.

    I have a choice between that and the Gateway P7902H FX.

    Difference between them,
    Toshiba 18.3" vs 17.3" screen
    Toshiba 1680 x 945 vs 1440x900 Resolution
    Toshiba Core i7 1.6Ghz or Q9000
    260M GTX or 250M GTS.

    I currently have a P7811FX which has hte 9800MGTS, both of the laptops are the same price, so I wanted to ask you people what would be faster.

    The Core i7 1.6Ghz or Q9000?
    Also if the 250M GTS is better then the 9800M GTS or atlest the same?

    Thanks alot guys :)

    I ordered my Toshiba Q830 a few hours ago. Sure, it's not a GTX 260M, but the GDDR5 GTS 250M should do just fine. I looked at every possible laptop I could find for around the same price, and the Toshiba won in my book.
