Hello Guys,
My question would be the the following:

Which notebook should i pick?

MSI GX620:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26Ghz
VGA: 9600M GT
Resolution:1280x800 (WXGA)

MSI GX623:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo P7350 2.0Ghz
VGA: ATi Mobil RadeOn HD4670
Resolution:1680x1050 (WSXGA+)

These are the major differencies. People say that the 4670 is better than the 9600 but the only source i found is notebookcheck.com where they r tested with different Cpus so the result might be wrong. If the 4670 is better is it worth the worse CPU? My final thought would be that if i play games on GX623 and turn down the graphics from 1680 to 1280 (because i cant play the most games in 1680 with this laptop i presume) would it be a major difference (like with a 22" desktop monitor games look crap in 1280). Apart from these i accept any opinion about this two laptops:)
(The price tag is almost equal in my country(Hungary))

I think the GX620 is a more well rounded system. The CPU will balance out the GPU at the 1280x800 resolutions since it's not as GPU dependent at that point. And no, you probably wouldn't be able to play at 1680x1050 on the 4670.

What sites/places are you looking to buy from? Give me some websites and a price point and I may be able to find something better or something that is more of a mix of the two systems.
