Thinking about pulling the trigger on the 3820 ivy and either 675m sli or crossfire m7970 version.

Question is am I being a bit quick off the mark ?

Is there anything else comparable/better on the way ??

Not that concerned about the cost as my company is paying and it will be my main rig :D:D
 
The 7970m are the fastest laptop cards out and will get better with new drivers.
I have a m18x R1 with 2*6990m in and it runs most game on very high settings.
2*7970m's will be about twice as fast. There is good info at noteboobreview m18x forum. There is also info about how to get discounts.
 
Rightly or wrongly and after reading posts on Notebook Review I have doubts about the AMD drivers for the 7970m, but will agree these GPU's are the best there is at the moment. ;)

By the way has there been an announcement as to when the 680m is due out ??
 
I'd take a single 7970M over the dual 675M lol.

Also the drivers we have at the moment are pre-release so its a bit unfair to use such hacked bodge jobs for comparisons.
 
i recently just got a mx17 with a 7970m not tried it out that much but seems better than my 570 on my desktop
 
How do the Alienware's fair out for general use, i.e Office suite, Web browsing etc etc.

Ive been thinking about getting a new laptop later in the year and i really do like the Alienware stuff, in particular the M11x.

It more than ticks the box in terms of design but apart from a gaming aspect i would want it to be better than your normal laptop in terms of speed etc.
