GeForce 8700M GT
guys, i know u've been all waiting for that gpu..and it seems that Toshiba will have it available before Clevo..:eek:
http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/...HO&poid=383432
..moreover it comes at $2500 with c2d 7300, 2GB ram, 2* 160GB (but only 5400 rpm..), HD-DVD(:eek: ), 1GB Robson memory, tuner and weights less than 10lb..
..ehhh..it's becoming SO MUCH HARDER to wait for m570ru..especially with those dual drives..could replace it with two 200GB 7.2k rpm Hitachi's..
..still, i'll wait for 590ru to be available through our local (USA) resellers..i"ll just wait for that gpu..and some benchmarks to see if it is really worthy replacement for 7950gtx ;)
..life S-U-X !!
:D
btw. my 1st post, but i've been reading this forum for over 6 mos now..;)
PLEASE DONT MOVE THIS THREAD TO TOSHIBA FORUM!!
i know it's not about clevo/sager system, but it corresponds to the most-awaited update for 570ru ;)

I dont think? that the M570RU has the option (atm) for dual HDD's does it? I thought that the second HDD carrier was going to be something for later?
Answer:
Re: GeForce 8700M GT
i was thinking the same thing - that it had two internal mounts for HDD's..but now it looks the oposite..:/
..can anyone with contacts @ clevo/sager confirm that? Justin? Paladin44? Gophn? (order is completely random..all of you guys seem to know A LOT when it comes to notebooks.. ;) )
thx in advance!

..all of you guys seem to know A LOT when it comes to notebooks.. If you stay around long enough you'll be much more knowledgeable yourself:)
Heck I've been around for a month and I know 3 times as much as I used too:p

Re: GeForce 8700M GT
3 times isn't enough to describe the growth of my knowledge during the research here... because when I started I had ZERO knowledge! lol

RockDirect (UK Vendor) has the 8700GT 512MB listed as a video card for the M570RU (Xtreme 770) :)

Re: GeForce 8700M GT
yeah, i know...it's just that i really don't wanna wait until August (that's when it should be available worldwide from Clevo)..and that toshiba is here..so tempting ;p
..still, anyone knows what's going on with these dual drives on m570ru? they've been saying that it will be availabe, bun now you cannot have it through pre-order..even HDD bracket is not available..and i wanted RAID 0 on these 200GB 7.2k Hitachi's...
..my pc died like 2 yrs ago, i dont want to wait longer than September.. ;p

Re: GeForce 8700M GT
1. The Sager NP5790 does not have the 2nd HDD option...this has already been asked and answered in another thread (doesn't anyone 'Search' anymore?)
2. Just because Toshiba is advertising the 8700M doesn't mean they are shipping it. When you find someone who actually HAS one come back and let us know...until then they join Rock, Eurocom, Alienware and others who are famous for advertising what is on the drawing board as if it were shipping already.
Does that sound like it had an edge to it??
Good...I have just seen too much of this advertising what they hope to have someday. What bothers me most about it is that so many innocent people get fooled by it...I hate it when that happens.
