Hi there everyone!

I am in a crisis I can't decide which laptop to buy. I've narrowed it down to three:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Gatewa [...] Id=9605365

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+- [...] Id=9556072

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applica [...] CatId=2289

Please help me decide. I am a moderate gamer, I mostly play FPS games and the occasional RTS.

Id think the GTX 260M is faster than the AIT 4650M
No?

I haven't seen benchmarks of either to compare to be honest. I'm waiting until the 40nm tech hits graphics cards for laptops before I personally get a new one. Haven't had any trouble with the 3650 1gb in my laptop so far. I'd at least hope the 4650 runs better than that.

Yea the 4650 runs pretty well, but not as well as the GTX260M

This laptop is, but note that the hard drive is only 5400rpm and its a 4650, the ASUS at Bestbuy is the better choice for the same price........the GTX260 eats the 4650 alive
