thanks ichime!

edit: aah, that was when crossfire was broken for most of gaming test, but worked under 3dmark and vantage tests....

 

What is the 5700 figure being referred to? I can't find a stock 9800M GTX with a mobile non-extreme dual core mobile scoring that much, even with physX...

 

ok thats pretty much what i can do so far

3dbenchmark06 vantage

i guess we shall have some more answers here in a bit...he is running vantage mark as we speak....

you link isn't working...

 

5700 is in John's single card vantage link,
Says 4200 or so on that review... so, alot less. In that the 4850 does really well at 4900.
So... is the median score here??? Faisal's score is a good average on his runs, so I think his is a good watermark here... but we need to establish a 9800m GTX watermark standard.

 

sorry guys i posted the link are start runing benchmark06 neary finish once done i ll fix the link :cry:

this should do

vantage so far

http://i44.tinypic.com/2m7atzl.jpg

 

Well the hd4850 scores a 47 on high 1680x1050 in farcry 2... and 37 on very high at 1680x1050
the 9800gtx scores 30 on ultra high 1900x1200 in fracry 2.... 41 on optimal at 1900x1200
Well if you add in reso scaling... im actually seeing the 4850 shine on this one for now.

 

log into orb and click my results
click all results
then click make public...but i just looked...your vga shows generic so they wont show.

so what you need to do is screen shot the whole page. it's like 3 screen shots to get it....

 

i took the screen shot in the end and posted it can u guy see ?

Turbo Mode/Overclocked or stock?

I'm sure you'd get even higher numbers had the 4850 came with 1024 megs instead of 512.

 

this one is stock no changes

turbo mode/overlock on the way

faisalhero please be kind and tell me your temps GPU/CPU under load? and at Idle pls pls pls

 

very nice scores indeed!
over clocked

 

this is awesome +rep for you

 

so after seeing and studying all the benchmarks ...

What can it tell us about the 9800 GTX and the 4850 ???

 

That laptops with the GTX better start coming down in price if they want to stay competitive.

 

yep, this laptop is the best high-end gaming bang for buck laptop on the market.

 

I wonder if this is gonna drop $100 dollars in price after a week like the 627 did?

 

Basically means the GTX which costs about $750 is being equaled by a GPU that only costs $250.(these are rough guesstimates) So people that buy GS/GT/GTX are buying a more expensive card for allot less performance per buck. Which is really foolish. Next is the 260-285 card from NVidia sometime this summer? or fall? but how much is that one gonna set us back by?

 

It's hard to call people "foolish" when ATI only now is getting the card out in the first place But still kudos to ATI for getting it done right

 

apparently not going to set you back any since everyone else buying a gs/gt/gtx for the past few years are "foolish" interesting term... and it's not 260 or 285 it's a g280m.(or so they say)

 

Have to say, mine just arrived this morning at 9:20AM UK time (Thank feck I chose to wake up to wait) and it tis bootiful.

Just letting it kick itself off at the moment while squealing like a piggy waiting and playing with the accessories.

 

do let us know what you think, vids, pics, words,whatever haha

 

Just loving the fresh from factory smell at the moment while the recovery discs are being written.
Have to say, although some people have knocked the look and feel, I'm quite liking it. Not too garish, but not bland either. About right.

About the mouse and bag people were asking about earlier, they are funnily enough good quality, not some random crap thrown in for the hell of it. Not exactly top rate uber expensive stuff, but certainly isn't bottom rung. Very commendable. Mouse is specifically a wired gaming one with all the usual bells and whisles that come with said item, which will keep folks happy. Programmable buttons on the side, button to change DPI (400/800/1200/1600), sexy rubber side grip, button to switch modes (gaming 1/gaming2/internet), 4 Way mouse wheel (clicks to the sides aswell), a box with gaming weights (to, I wonder, change the weight) Etc Etc. You get the picture. Good feel to it, nice response.
The bag is a bag o_0 nice, funky colour scheme, tons of space, area to hold laptop, doesn't feel like it will fall apart quickly. Good backpack. Will clearly be using them.

 

does the msi support 2 x HD's?

 

no, it doesn't

 

What is the sound like out of the onboard speakers?

 

Thx! There already has been a pricedrop:
http://notebooknet.de/product_info.php?refID=frg&info=p3949_MSI-GT725-8647VHP.html

There are 2 models for continental EU:
GT725-8647VHP (0017222-SKU2) [That's the "budget" one, P8600]
GT725-9547VHP (0017222-SKU1) [only difference is P9500, no BluRay confirmed, still WSXGA+ glare TFT (1680x1050)]

price comparison:
http://geizhals.at/eu/a401473.html
http://geizhals.at/eu/a400940.html

Another 120 EUR will get you a P9500, still waiting for it to drop below 1000EUR.

 

I really hope the second model will have blu-ray, fingers crossed

 

Not too shabby actually, pretty good. Clean, crisp. Heard a LOT worse. Again thoroughly impressed.

I'll give it a more better test in a bit. See if we can get some loud bangs going on CoD4 etc.

 

cheers mate, would be interested to see how it does
