| Like I was showing you I have a fairly similar laptop (also an ABS) and it's been great so far, plays all my games very well. I'm even typing on it right now ![]() The only downside is the battery life, it's tough to eek out more than 2.5hrs out of the 6-cell battery. Not a huge deal but something you might keep in mind. Honestly I'd rather have the high end graphics from my laptop than get 3+ hrs out of a slower one.

| you do have an abs laptop? Where did you get it (link please) just wondering. I want to use a laptop for gaming. Don't need a large hard drive. I have 760gb 2 300gb hard drives and 1 160gb hard drive and i am only using about 50gb so 80gb will last a while. |

| I've got this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834224060 It was actually cheaper than ABS' site as they're affiliated with Newegg. Here's all of the ABS laptops they carry: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...SubCategory=32 Video is key in a gaming laptop, it's got to be good. I put an extra gig of ram into mine and I'm plaing Oblivion at 1024x768 on High perfectly. I have yet to try plaing at native but I think it'd run fine there too.
