Ok - first of all, the 9800 pro is faster then both the 5900XT and 5900 Ultra. The FX series was a flop, with bad thermals, noisy fans, horrible DX9 performance and high price. The 9800 PRO dominated performance charts until nvidia released the 5950 Ultra - but ATi answered with the 9800XT...

" it seems the age of the heavy, chunky gaming laptop is ending" - you're so wrong. First of all, the 950m and 960m GPUs will not satisfy a true gamer (unless all they play is MMORPGs). Specs-wise, the 960m's 650 cuda cores are a little over half of the 1024 cores the GTX 960 (desktop version)...

Why the GTX 970m? Why not the 980m? Thermals and power usage are not that far off between the two, and the 980m performs significantly better all-round.

@sullivang - "Still waiting for a 17" ultra-HD (3K would be fine) laptop, and it doesn't even have to be "fire breathing" - WHY? Why do you need 4K on a tiny 17" pannel? I ca BARELY tell the difference between a 27" 1080p pannel and a 27" 4K one - don't tell me your eyes are that good! I've...

I don't know why Lenovo is sticking with the 8" form factor. I personally think it's too small. And what's up with the full HD resolution? I don't need full HD resolution on a n 8" screen - and considering the shitty GPU the intel atom has, I don't want full HD resolution. Also, why 32GB? that's...

I've been waiting for something like this for years... but MSI's implementation has several major issues in my humble opinion: 1. They should have used a cable to connect the eGPU to the laptop, instead of turning it into a dock, so one could use the laptop's display and keyboard to game while...

I don't agree with you on the drivers part. While it used to be true in the past, I consider current AMD drivers to be on par with nVidia's. I currently own an Asus ROG 751JY with an nvidia card, and I have to say - nvida drivers are dissapointing. Issues like BSODs and overheating, or setting...

You do realise that the GTX 980m has nothing to do with the desktop version of the GTX 980 right? Performance-wise, the 980 mobile is someware around the GTX 780 (non-ti version), witch makes it good for playing most games at 1920x1080 + high to ultra details depending on the game. While two...

Pics of the inside of my Rig: I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that 290 :)

I fell in love with the HAF XB first time I saw it. Have been using one for three months now - lots of space, extremely well ventilated, easy to work with, and a great looker too. Initially I wanted to go for an expensive 250$ case so my crossfire configuration could fit and have enough...

Screen's too small. And before you jump all over this comment, I have rather big fingers and poor eyesight. I'd rather carry a brick in my pocket then have to squinch my eyes at a 3,5 screen, let alone try and type a SMS on it or browse the internet.
