Question is- will this thing still run two years later? Or will I have to bring the poorly soldered thing back to life using the oven bake trick?]]>Jun 4th 2010 7:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/
FYI I say so because Nvidia (more so than ATI) does a poor job soldering their mobile GPUs. The lead-free solder probably takes the most blame.]]>Jun 4th 2010 7:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 5:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/I'm more like " Will the Clevo D900 come with a non-stick lid so I can make omelet on the go?" ]]>Jun 4th 2010 6:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 5:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 5:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Yes; it's the first ever laptop which can double as a hovercraft.]]>Jun 4th 2010 6:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/

All in the same exact chassis. It doesn't surprise me they're using their desktop replacement model for the 480m. I imagine the only other kind of laptop that could properly cool it would be an 18.4" monstrosity.]]>Jun 4th 2010 5:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/
Ugh, you beat me to it, but here is the link to the Sager laptop:
http://www.sagernotebook.com/index.php?page=product_info&model_name=NP9285

I bought a Sager gaming laptop back in 2006 with an awesome mobile 7900GTX with 512mb of RAM!! It was a beast back then, still works fine :)]]>Jun 4th 2010 5:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/
Also, the base configuration including the new GTX 480 is $2800 and it only goes up if you add some truly amazing options like the i7-980X with 6 cores!!]]>Jun 4th 2010 6:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 10:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Well, I mean come on. It uses a DESKTOP i7 processor. It even uses a mobile x58 socket board with Triple DDR3 RAM support. You can customize the thing to have 16GB of RAM.

It's a desktop replacement in every sense of the word. Other gaming laptops still at least use all mobile components, the only thing mobile on this "notebook" is the GPU.]]>Jun 4th 2010 10:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 5:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 5:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/

If you made a joke about how hot Fermi is, you blew it.

If you made a joke about blowing it, you blew it.

Speaking of blowing, I think those fans blow pretty hard.

Better call the vet, these... OK no I'll stop.

But seriously folks, if you want a portable workstation that accelerates Adobe software... you're looking at it.]]>Jun 4th 2010 7:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/Jun 4th 2010 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480m-breaks-cover-frags-competition-in-3dmar/You realize that was updated, right? nVidia doesn't blacklist sites, if you had gone back to the original posting from Hardware Secrets, you'd see nVidia never blacklisted them.
