Guys,
Re the single and dual CH memory differences, I read an indepth article about 4 mo ago when the X2 cpu's first were released for testing purely dealing with memory and if I recall correctly the diff between DDR and DDR2 was very small. They said the diff between 533 DDR2 on the Intels and 400 DDR on the AMDs was Only 1-3%. That was 1 reason AMD was not too worried about rushing to introduce it. They will be moving to 533 DDR2 on the next cpu releases next yr like the X2 5000? which is supposed to run each core at 2.6Mhz. Sorry I cant remember what site it was but I was particularly interested when I saw the article. If I can google and find it I will post the link. I will have to wait til next yr to buy my dual core lappy anyway so by then the newer cpu etc may be avail from Sager or a new platform to replace the D900 chassis.

An fx57/4800 with a 7800 go, people will want it to do one thing....Play on MAX settings. I know I am a little bummed when I cant play FEAR on max settings with my 8 month old Alienware fx-55 dual Ultra SLI rig. Call of Duty 2 is even worse! So I will probably hold off until I can get a next gen card that surpasses the best Desktop cards on the market right now because even those cards are havin ga little difficulty keeping max settings on TODAY's games:/
of Clevo that they designed an AMD based notebook with such specs. No other company pronounced an AMD based notebook with such performance potential.
