you need to be reviewing this badboy. i need to be seein this 1800m on 3d scores or even fps on new games like bad company 2 and gta 4

 

Were there more LCD option on their site before??

 

Yes indeed, if there won't be any good reviews before I receive it will do it my self. Never did it though

I was slightly confused with it as press release was slightly different to actual order you can make, and even specifications info on LCDs are different to configuration options (naming and 3 options instead of 4).

15.6" HD UltraSharp LED Display (1366x768) Resolution
15.6" HD+ UltraSharp LED Display (1600x900) Resolution
15.6" HD+ sRGB LED Back-Lit Display (1600x900) Resolution
15.6" FHD LED Back-Lit Display (1920x1080) Resolution

But when you try to configure, only options you get are these:

15.6in High Definition White Led Antiglare LCD Panel
15.6in High Definition+ White Led LCD Panel
15.6in Full High Definition White Led Antiglare LCD Panel

Also you get only 2MP camera instead of 3MP, no USB3 and didn't see option for Gobi 2.0.

P.S. Still not sure whether 1800m - DDR3 or DDR5.

 

hmmm...wonder if we'll see some corrections in the next few days.

 

Supposedly, it's only GDDR3, which kinda sucks if HP has a GDDR5 version...

 

Add me in as an early adopter...

 

nVidia GDDR5?

 

/\/\ Not sure what you mean. Both systems offer the nVidia 1880M. It's optional on the dell, not sure on the HP. The 1880M has 1 gig of memory on board, it's either GDDR3 or GDDR5. How one tells I don't know.

Rumor is dell is using the 1880m with GDD3.

Link to nVidia.

 

I question it because I haven't seen a mobile GDDR5 nVidia card yet, only ATI.
