    Which GPU is Better? (NVIDIA vs ATI)

    I think i will probably end up with a studio 1749. It has better sound, and there were lots of complaints about the VAIO's glare/reflection and poor screen quality. I'll probably be running CAD programs etc. as well as gaming this fall when I head off to school. Overall, The Studio 1749 just...
