Thread Starter 
I am looking for a good notebook to play the newest 3d games, for under $2000 (the farther under the better).
I want it to have a great graphics card that will still be able to play new games a couple years from now. Heat and size arent really a big factor to me, just power and price.

I have been trying to do the search on my own, but i get too confused about all the processors and graphics cards and reviews lol.

Thanks in advance for any help.

No matter how you look at it, the 6800 Go Ultra is the most powerful gaming card available... and yes, it does outperform the mobile X800. The Dell XPS2 is a really great buy, and you'll end up spending a lot more on a comparable Alienware--mostly for the name.

The XPS2 is the cheapest one with such a powefull GPU...If its too expensive, then you need to get a x700 or 6600

Look in my sig...Paid $1650

Don't worry. Deals come around all the time on XPS Gen 2s. Most of them are $750 off deals.

I totally agree about the XPS and a coupon.

Artek also has a good point on the z70v Refresh. That will be a very nice notebook (If it ever finds its way into anyones hands lol). On the subject of Asus, a Z71v can play all the most recent games nicely too.

XPS2 was to expensive for my tastes.
