maybe, maybe not...
problem is, MS never confirms it, and will not do so until probably till that day only so that sales will remain... |

GeForce GTX, there's mobile version, GTX 280M and GTX260M respectively, there's still GTS 160M, GTS 150M, GT 130M, GT 120M, G 110M, G 105M and G 101M... this is the most probable line up from Nvidia until GT300 is out... using Hyper-X RAM won't give u any significance performance boost as the bottleneck is at the FSB... faster RAM only means forking out more cash for nothing... 1066MHz FSB means RAM @ 533MHz is already sufficient... the only change on paper will be the tigher latency, but heck, i doubt u'll notice it in real life... and wat's so wrong with BenQ??? i ve heard more complaints abt Acer than in BenQ, and as a previous owner of BenQ S41, i can gurantee u that besides the GPU problem (Nvidia  ), there's absolutely no problem with it...This post has been edited by astria: Jun 18 2009, 09:46 AM |
