Will this laptop power a Dell 3008WFP 30"

Forum Graphics & Displays : Graphics Cards Will this laptop power a Dell 3008WFP 30"

Hi I'm buying a Dell XPS Laptop, Dell says it will power the 3008 at native resolution of 2560x1600...there's no dual DVI but there's DisplayPort for the output. But I'm wondering how much muscle this system will be able to provide on games and such. Thanks for any advice!

Studio XPS 16 Notebook PWC16HN
Processor Intel ® Core ™ i7 720QM 1.6GHz (2.8 GHz Turbo Mode, 6MB Cache)
Memory 4GB Shared Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz 4GB2D
Video Card ATI Mobility RADEON® HD 4670 – 1GB M96INT

Yes it will display fine but no hope in hell of playing games.

Yeah I just saw some benchmarks, it looks like the HD 4670 is a nice chip but not powerful enough. It's about $1,200 more for the Sli -powered M17x, but I don't like the Alienware logo and I will use this laptop for business.

I think it will be most efficient to buy a console for gaming if I get the urge for shooting games.
