Yeah, I wished too that I could put 2x8GB in my laptop. I have a Dell XPS 17 (l701x) laptop, with i3-380m as CPU. On Intel's website, it mentions a maximum memory of 8GB: http://ark.intel.com/products/50178/Intel-Core-i3-380M-Processor-(3M-Cache-2_53-GHz). I was wondering if it was like this...

I would also like to thanks everyone who helped, especially Matthias99 who has been really helpful and enlighted my choice. He somehow gave me the will to try to find a better deal for a better card. I really hope I did the right choice (I think I did, ho ho ho) and that he will be happy :)...

Hi, I finally settled for that: http://cgi.ebay.com/BFG-Geforce-6600-gt...13QQcategoryZ40161QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem (I get it for 150$ CAD, he is a local and I will get it in hand and in a timely manner. I tried to get it at lower 125$, but I think 150$ is not bad. Apparently it is new...

ASUS N6600 http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?l1=2&l2=7&l3=154&model=408&modelmenu=1 Looks fine with me. I don't see any catch (like how I was deceive that the N6200 had only 64 bit bus. maybe it doesn't make much a difference in practice, maybe a lot, but it was buggin me and I had the...

NVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX 400 [Display adapter] (I found this because I helped him long-distance not long ago and I make him run a program to know all the part of his computer, hihihi). He has also an integrated one on his board (Board: Seanix Technology Inc. GA-8S661FXM-775) -- but I doubt...

And also http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/prodde...gid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10052920&catid= 200$ for ATI all-in-wonder 9800 PRO. But that probably begin to be way out of my budget... me that wanted to go near 100$ first, haha... it seems to be always like this.

There is also that fast promotion: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/prodde...N&sku_id=0665000FS10065771&catid=10524 150$ for an ATI all-in-wonder 9600XT. I don't want to think eternally too... and the deal I could get for the one I just listed in my previous post, I guess I need to act quick.

LOL, well my initial budget was for a 100$ less card to improve what he already has (geforce mx 400)... and CAD Money is going way up, watch your word :P Here is an update: I just informed myself... check what I can get fast before taxes... can you please give me fast feedback on this? (my...

Hi, thanks a lot for your feedback. Here is my updated list and the one with star are the one I am highly considerating. - ASUS AGP GF6 N6600 128M TVO BOX 6600 $159.00 - GIGA AGP GF6 GV-N66256DP 256M TVO BOX 6600 $165.00 * - PCOLOR AGP RAD 9600PRO 256M TVO BOX $105.00...

I check fast fast the review, but the point doesn't give me all. Is it fps? Acceptable fps would be 30 fps? So I heard now that 6200 won't give you playable fps, that is dissapointing if the case (or I guess you have to disable a lot of option) Will a 9600pro, 9600xt does? (I guess...

Thanks Matthias. Actually if the Asus 6200 wasn't 64 Bit, I won't have worried much when I checked pretty overview. Even thought I have not do all the reasoning and analysis to see how it affect it. I did feel the 64 Bit Bus could potentially be something bad. As for 6600, the model that...

(The specs of his computer I know is also in my first post if you read it fast)

Powermoloch: The store that are near me that sell at decent price (probably not as much as web) might be: microbytes.com/products.php?show=all&pcid=202 shoplci.com ordicentre.com that is where I would accept a little bit pricier but could pickup fast. else if really I can get way...
