Should be roughly proportional to whatever the clockspeed difference is. The 8700GT is an overclocked 8600GT and not terribly powerful because of it... of course its all relative. I believe that I can safely say it will be significantly slower than a desktop 8600GTS.

Not sure if you can overclock it. I know the drivers on my Sager are locked so as to prevent heat related damage to the system.
 
I should have specified when I posted before. I did mean on stock drivers and it may just be a Sager thing. If you download drivers from laptopvideo2go.com or the afore mentioned Omega's, you should be able to OC. With mine on stock drivers, I can unlock the OC portion using Coolbits and set it to what I want, but the settings automatically revert back to default. Some google/ forum searching may be required to find out if your system can OC with the stock drivers.

the 8600m gt overclocks like a fiend. :fou: i recommend starting at 600 core and pushing on from there.
