finding the right one has been a nightmare would like the 7 series c2d with the best graphics i can get
all the new ones on toshibas site have the intel 950 video or nvidia 110
a number of sites have there own model numbers with geforce go cards but what to get?

I managed to get myself a Dell 6400 a month ago for £800

.
A core 2 duo T5600 1.83GHz, 2gb pc5300, 1200gb HDD, Geforce go 7300 256mb, 15.4 screen, Vista Ultimate.
It's okay gaming for 800 quid. Not stunning. But Okay.

I picked up my Acer laptop in october for about £850 which is:

C2D 1.83, 2gb ram, Nvidia 7600, 160gb hard disk, 17" widescreen. Plays modern games nice on sensible settings.

I found this site to help you out with mobile graphics cards.

thanks vlad

thats just what i have been looking for,
shows how little things have got better with laptops, as my three year old toshiba has a fx5200 in it and is still half way up the list !
trying to find one with a x1600 but they seem to have dropped this in favour to the very average intel 950.
