Anyone here is able to play games like Splinter Cell Double Agent, GRAW2 with DELL 2GHz Core 2 Duo on 8600M (8600GT)? Graphic on SC:DA is corrupted and GRAW2 is laggy. My 7600GT on a old P4 can do better than that. I tried to upgrade the graphic driver from nvidia but it say no device found.... Anyone manage to update their 8600M's driver?

Any comments on the 1720? I'm actually holding a 510M now however I'm thinking of getting one for gaming as I'm going over to Aussie for studies.

Would like to know if the build quality is good and if its worth the price?

DELL Inspiron 1720 Review

Pros:

* Very tough structure and underbody.
* Strong gaming performance with the 8600M GT
* Excellent battery life for a 17" notebook
* Bright and Vivid LCD with excellent viewing angles

Cons:

* Paint defects out of the box
* HD Bay cover has some play, making loud clacking noises
* No plaid paint option ... they offer every other color after all.

Ok thanks for the fast reply, another Q. is regarding Hitachi Credit.

I've checked the Hitachi Credit website, thinking of taking a Hire-Purchase plan, but the interest rate is not stated. Can anyone advice?

Not worth it, use interest free Credit Card will do.

Yea, it's not worth it. But just wanna see if the difference is big, if not i will just go for Hitachi Credit so would lock my credit limit.
