PB, they are around the same spec/speed as a pair of desktop 6870's.

You should work for EA support with responses like that.

They are not laptops, they are desktop replacements. Stuff for people who have too much money to burn and trade in flexibility for ... well, insignificantly better portability.
Nothing like a bit of badly disguised ad-hominem eh?

Let's lay down some facts:

  • You can game on laptops, or please find me the law/rule that says you cannot.
  • It doesn't replace my desktop, no laptop can.
  • What I or anyone you are not related to do with their money shouldn't concern you.
  • It's considerably more portable than a desktop. Can a desktop do 7 hours on battery then switch over to the d-gpu's in a blink for some good quality gaming?
  • I can turn up to a lan with a single messenger bag containing said laptop, power supply, a mouse & a mousepad. Seriously convenient.
  • AMD drivers are great for single cards and 50/50 rubbish for crossfire. I've used amd/ati for years and this problem has reared it's ugly head on many occasion, far more so than I get with sli. - Which was my inital point in the first place. AMD need to work much harder on crossfire as right now I would prefer the 580's over the 6990's becuase of poor/non-existent scaling in recently released games.
