    Not a bad deal, with the savings you should upgrade to an 880m

    For games, the GPU is the most important aspect to running games smoothly.

    A 7970m is close to the top of mobile gpus. It's a monster. I think it's roughly equal to the 7950 desktop GPU.

    This site has a so-so review of the GX60:

    http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-...k.86283.0.html

    Apparently, they skimped on the CPU, and it can't push stuff fast enough to the Radeon to max it out.

    $500 for it sounds like a steal anyways.

    Yeah, unfortunately the proc really does affect it, however from what I've read early models struggled a lot and the enthusiasts thread over at notebookreview have managed to get a ton of extra performance out of it, and you can even upgrade the proc for $65 to make it much less bottlenecked.

    Either way, a $500 that can handle BF4 on ultra at above 40fps is nothing to be worried about. of an upgrade from my M11x and I can use it for work.

    Close enough. Remember, 41 is average so it will routinely be above that. Not like I'm going to have AA cranked on a 1080p resolution anyway. Also, I thought the 7970m was = to the 7950 but it's actually closer to the 7870 ghz.

    You're only as good as your lowest frame, breh. Nah I'm just trolling you, plus for 5 bills that's a steal. That's a 1200.00 laptop which is an outstanding deal, even if you're running BF3 at 720p, low textures, and no AA at 26 FPS.

    Unfortunately the processor means I have to run it AT 1080p or take a performance hit. Kind of bizarre but again -- I can't complain. Might upgrade the proc for $65, as well.

    Well, except the fact that they've been rocking the GPU market since the 8800 from Nvidia was out.
