[theory_87]

if u r a high graphic user, ATI Radeon X800.. if not, X300 can do

Acer also don't have, haven't come across any notebook that has it. So, how to buy one with x800?

 

[a_h_f_s]

erm...im not very sure about this...but...can't u change ur gfx card without buying a new lappy?

Dell ones can, provided if you can buy the parts from Dell Spare Part Exchange, people overseas are doing that.

IBM, Acer, etc... never heard that the graphics are upgradeable... never heard people successfully doing it without turning their notebook to garbages...

 

[jld_lin]

hi hi. Have a dell 9300 with 6800go and it rocks! love it more than my desktop now

yeah i heard people are upgrading overseas cuz the parts are easier to get. there is a 7800 go now hope it arrives here soon.

Sorry, got a replied from ATI, only the following has MRx800

Alienware
Area-51m 7700

Clevo
D900T
D700T

Eurocom
D900T PHANTOM

Hypersonic-PC
Aviator EX6

Rock Direct
Xtreme Ti

Sager
NP9860-C
NP9860-S

VoodooPC
m:790

They give me a link as well.

So as to say, NO X800 GPU in any notebook in SG which means the best there is out of ATI is x700... which is a far distance from NVIDIA GeForce Go6800.

EDITED: Anyway the benchmark of MRx800 3DMark05 is 38xx, so its also a distance from GeForce Go6800...

 

[theory_87]

oh.. nice wk...
