Radeon 9800XT is the best u could get. Well until we see some benchmark of 8x 6800U vs 4x 6800U and 8x X800XT vs 4x X800XT.

4x doesn't hadicap the 9800 series, and probably only has a small impact on cards that are just hitting the market.

Dell is the DEVIL! lol

their systems are cheap but they use unconvential parts.

Thier high end XPS gaming system is the just a little less then Voodoo and Alienware and it comes with part that are no equel to them.
