Ya, I was gonna say the same thing too lol. Asus V6VA is exactly what you're looking for. 15" glossy screen, ATI X700, and yet only 5.5lbs. It's probably the thinnest 15" notebook on the market that has a solid graphics card in...

Your friend is right, but I would still get the 1 stick of 1 gig. The performance difference with dual channel is not even noticeable, only about a 5% improvement. That and 2 gigs of RAM is most definitely used in BF2 and online MMO's...

Ouch, that's a lot more. Ya, I've never tried that one from ATI, but I figured it'd work just fine. People have recommended it before. Does it not work with the W3V, or all Asus notebooks?

Both the Z71V and Z70VA have WSXGA+ screens. Resolution is 1680x1050.

This should do the trick. VGA breaks down into component very nicely. It looks really sharp on an HDTV.

The wallpaper itself is good, but there's a problem he'll have for sure. The Z71V is a widescreen laptop, and that wallpaper is 4:3. Anyway you could make it widescreen?

Ya, if you're talking top of the line games for the next 3-4 years, you're gonna want to look at something with more power. The 6600 Go won't cut it 3-4 years down the road. If you want something that is still a good performer 3-4 years...

As far as my Z70VA: Absolutely, no laptop that's out right now suits my needs better than this one. I love it. My old Dell Inspiron 8200: Hell no. If I had known about this forum, I would have waited a few months till the Pentium-M's...
