Dual ATI Mobility 5780 vs Single Nvidia GTX 480M

These are the 2 top of the line GPU options for laptops right now, as far as I know.

Anyone aware of a detailed comparison between them? I'm going to have to chose soon.

There is also this beast, with dual GTX 480M's, but I want to hear that it can run for more than 10 minutes without melting down to the centre of the earth. http://eurocom.com/products/showroom/specselectnew.cfm?model_id=214

GTX 480M performs better than a 5870M(About 10%) but 2 5870Ms perform better than 1 480M

And just so you guys know, we just received the Eurocom model with two 5870s. Thomas is working on a review comparing the two configurations right now!

Great news - looking forward to it.

OriginPC has had the two configs available for a while - too bad they didn't step up with some test models.

That's great, i am expecting dual GTX 480Ms to be 10-15% faster, but it depends on the drivers too.
