I have a 5000$ budget to buy an 17" Dell XPS notebook Should I go now and save around 600$ but be stuck with the buggy 8800 GTX SLI ... with Core 2 Extreme X9000 or Wait for new XPS with Quad Core and Nvidia 9800 ? Any news...

Pics coming up !

II. Configuration Processor(s)Processor: 1CPU_Name: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Extreme CPU X9000 @ 2.80GHz CPU_Manufacturer: GenuineIntel CPU_Caption: x64 Family 6 Model 23 Stepping 6 CPU_Version: Model 7, Stepping 6 CPU_ProcessorId:...

So I just got it ... done a fiew test ... Overall = sick, but seems to have the same problems with the SLI setup ... low performance (20-25 fps in World of Warcraft)

Is the Core 2 Extreme worth it compared to the 2.5ghz T9300 one ?

I'm building my m17x system ... I need to cut in options to buy others : I want the 8800 GTX cards I want Raid 0 hard drives ( 240gb is enough for me) I would like to get the Core 2 Extreme processor ... First option I will cut...

I use 2 chairs, 1 for me and the other for my mouse, but my balls overheat after fiew minutes of gaming ... Maybe I should one of those ...

If you install ATI Tray Tools for the first time and get very excited by the Hardware Overcloack ability ... don't pump the settings to it's max and click apply ...

You can see my setup in my signature ... I scored 4700, is that good ?
