Answer:
Re: Asus F3SC and F3Sv
Yeah, those are ASUS F3-series SantaRosa refresh which are appearing through Europe now, shipping date seems to be 5.15 and price for the Go 8600 about ~1500€. F3Sv sounds so sweet that I'm thinking to change current A6Ja for it right away.

Re: Asus F3SC and F3Sv
Very nice! I cant wait to check them out in person. If they are not too heavy and battery is good then I will buy one for sure. Price is very good too.

Re: Asus F3SC and F3Sv
Wow - I didn't think they'd actually announced the mobile chipsets for the 8000 series? Apparently I'm wrong! Would love to know how these 8600's bench compared to the 7600's and 7700's.

I think Go 8600 will be somewhere around Go 7900GS performance.

Re: Asus F3SC and F3Sv
If Go8600 > Go7900GS that would be awesome - would make the existing 14 and 15" gaming notebooks look sloppy (like the Asus G1).
What makes you think that the 8600 will be quicker than the 7900GS?

Maybe not quicker but somewhere around it, well did some research of desktop 8600GT benchmarks and TDP values. Then the fact that last generations there has been similar speedjumps, Go 6600/7600 etc.

Link this place gives a bit more detail. I wonder if the go8600 with 512MB Ram is for real. The desptop cards dont even have that much. 1GB with hyper memory is just WOW!!!
I cant see anything with robson. I guess its not included.
Answer:
Re: Asus F3SC and F3Sv
I wonder why they aren't using DDR2-800 memory since the whole point of Santa Rosa is the new 800 MHz FSB.
