        Money is not a prob for me at the moment,do you really think I'd sacrifice my childs upbringing for a new rig?!

          my oppinon is that i dont like gaming laptops cause it is so hard to use the mouse on it enven if you buy a mouse and set it up on a laptop i still cant do much on it.

            Would someone give the poor man advice?! Look dude, I'll build you the best damn thing I can when I get up tomorrow. And I'll spend every nickel of that 3500.

              I know most people will flame me for saying this, go have a look at the dell site and check out the xps range of lappys. They seem to be cheaper than most ive come across. heres the page http://www1.euro.dell.com/content/pr...hs1&l=en&s=dhs

                  Q: What would you pay for this rig??

                  A: Not Alienware's asking price.

                  That's all you have to know. I'd do a search for other, smaller vendors.

                  I don't know what the US conversion is of that price but I'd be willing to bet this laptop is cheaper.

                  ProStar 5988

                  I'd even go cheaper, I mean what do you want to play on it, BF2? Look at my specs, I play at 1600x1200 all settings high with 2xAA (ingame) and 4xAD (card controled).

                  Just how much performance gain are you going to get on that lap top? First of all it's power is exceding it's ability to even display it (for resolution). Sure you could turn up the AA and AF, but it's higher resolutions that make the biggest difference. And that's even if it can push harder then my machine, laptops and the Vcards that go in them are notoriusly under acheiving.

                  I haven't even added a second 7800GT yet. I can play at 1920x1440 (with my single 7800GT), with toning down the AA and clipping back some lighting effects. But the tags are so small I can't read players names. What's the point of dual 7900GTX's in a lap top whos' max res is under that?

                  Take a deep breath and think about it, unless you've got gobs of money to just toss around.

                  Upgrades can be a nightmare too, in less then 2 years it will struggle to "max" out the games that are being realesed.

                  I'd get something that will play the games you want at a decent resolution but isn't going to set you back 3-4 grand.

                  Set a budget for about 2 grand. You'll find something decent and thank yourself for doing so in under 20 months.
