Why did you stay with the 8700? You had the ability to get the best mobile graphics card on the market and you turned it down? Should have just gotten a fuckin Dell instead man.

don't be such assholes people :rolleyes

which graphics card should have i built it with?

9800GTX - that's such a fuckin bad ass mobile card to have in a 15.4" laptop, it's not even funny.

And as for expensive, yah it is TD - probably around $2k overall if you upgrade to the card I just listed. But, if you travel a lot, then it's worth it.

$2,400 - we needed a new laptop for home use - i won $3,000 last month at charles town races & slots, so in reality it didn't cost me a dime and who cares who it is actually geared for :D
