Thanks Deathking , does help some. Of course I've just blurred the problem even more for myself but finally bit the bullet on one. For a bit more I upgraded to the from the 470 to yhe 485m video card which according to notebook check is a big jump for single card performance. I'm spending a...

Trying to decide between this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004I1J864/ref=oss_product and the Sager 7280 with a core i7 950 and 470m video card The G73 is going to have the 460m and I'd rather have the 470m in the Sager , but I was wondering how you all think that new Sandy...

Just ordered one of these from Newegg myself. Should come in Monday, will post some real life battery times once get chance to test. Couldn't pass up a 15" with 1080p resolution and those specs for 1499.

Just pulled the trigger at Dell for one of these. Had one of their first 30" models and I missed the 2560x1600 resolution. For 1200 bucks shipped with advanced exchange and zero bad pixel guarantee I figured worth a shot.

Leopard's Disk Utility lets you choose to write zeros across every sector to erase it completely - there's not going to be any trojan left over after than

I can answer specifically about Warhammer Online - I had a 9800gt and went from that to 4870 - my framerate went up across the board by a good amount but the most noticeable was going into heavily populated areas On the test server in city sieges with tons of spell effects on screen at a...

Seriously doubt you are going to see Sept upgrades for the Mac Pro - Jan - Feb 09 at earliest is my bet

Actually no the original card was NOT good enough for my requirements , as I said I wanted zero , ZERO slowdowns even if running up on 50 other players in enemy RvR or in the city with tons of detail around , The 9800gt was "good" but still had noticeable slowdowns if you had tons on screen...

Replaced it with a 4870 - Warhammer Beta was noticeablely better than the 9800gt - it didnt do bad but had moments of hitching when huge crowds came into view - the 4870 has none

Shit hardware ? Apple ? 4 Macbooks and 2 Macbook pros and would rather have one of those than any Dell - and we sell 1000's of Dells each year to our clients and the build quality is cheap as shit Saying Dell's build quality is better than Apple's is about the most ridiculous thing I...

Also might want to go into a mac store and try out the macbook air keyboard feel - I personally hate it So will be stuck with my current Macbook Pro for quite a while , as I will wait until upgrading again as I much prefer the current feel and look of the Macbook Pro than the Macbook Air ...

Well leaning towards the 4870 now , guess about a hundred bucks more if its a more noticeable jump I dont mind Any issues dropping just one ATI on the nvidia motherboard ? And I guess I should consider a slot cooler positioned above it to exhaust more heat out ? I keep hearing they really...

Really no difference between the 9800gt and 4850 ? Just know will be RvRing with lots on screen at time and wanted to give best shot at zero major slowdowns fps wise - saw could get one of those around 160 and seemed like reviews put it decently above the 8800gt/9800gt at higher res like...

Just wanted to get opinions on single card solution - going in a cheap XPS rig I grabbed with E8400 and 6GB RAM - want to upgrade the 9800gt that came with it as seems from most reviews that the 4850 and 70 are better than it ? This is going to be 90% for playing Warhammer Online at...

A new 17" for that price is an amazing deal then - grab it and then get 4 GB ram online for under 100 bucks and you'll be set for a good while and not regret it at all
