It's actually a step backward from the A8Js which have a faster cpu and a 1440x900 screen> I haven't seen the 3DMark06 score but I heard that it wasn't much better than a Go7600 which means it offer no big improvement over the Go7700 in the A8Js.

Furious could you put up a small review with some benchmarks? I've been interested in this exact model and haven't seen any reviews yet.

The computer is packed and ready to list on auction but I did some research online and found this might better help you with the review..
it is done by CNET taiwan...as its more reliable source in comparison.

Higher the scorer is better. Goes by following order Hard drive->3D Gaming->Windows Aero Dsktop->Memory->CPU

This is Vista Index Chart. As you can see Win Aero part, its got only 3.0 but 3D Graphic it has a 4.0

PCMARK 05

3DMARK 06

The MMX slot. Needless today its still useless as there's no market for it. Whos knows about the future thou.

Review: Asus A8SC is a very high performing machine with a decent specification in todays market. Althought it has a very dull looking, but its got an abundant I/O such as plenty of USB ports and a VGA to DVI. Surely its not a replacemnt for gaming laptop ..but it is much of portable casual gaming and task oriented laptop. Gforce8400M Dedicated graphic card has truely boost the notebook potential with recent released of santa rosa cpu. 2.0GHz,FSB 800MHz,L2 4mb along with 802.11n Draft(supplsy4x faster than 54mbps). What I didn't like about the laptop thou is that the heating vent is built on the right side which dispates enough of heat warming on your hand while using the mouse. Other than that stil itsl a great built laptop.
