noticed I said "usually" Anything core 2 duo will run the latest games fine. Core duo as well.

very nice, you should process it in PS however. lower the brightness and play around with the contrast. Should result in some nice pictures. What kind of camera were you using? Nikon D40?

that's a great price for the specs you've gotten! Do you really need a T7500 processor though? Not a lot of people need more than a T7300 I would assume.

my M1210 idles 40C, and at full loads never peaked more than 60C.

I recommend reading and following my guide that I've written on NBR.com http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=130014 it's a lot of pictures, but it ensure you're doing the right thing. It's baby steps

That's a nice system. I own the exact same specs minus quadro card. How much did you end up paying after taxes?

Vostro's are good deals so long as you don't upgrade them too much. Once you do, you're better off finding an inspiron coupon and applying that to a home purchase.

Of course gamers would rather see a beefy GPU than a CPU. GPU's are usually the bottlenecking factor in gaming.

that is most definitely amazing results on the 8600GT!

That is nothing short of amazing! what justifies a need for such a large display!?
