So I am looking to buy new gaming laptop for college this year and am ready to ditch this sorry POS I'm on right now. I have 2700 to spend and thats is the limit

I was looking at Asus's C90p or but that looks like its going to be out in feb and can only support MXM slots witch is gay cause i wanted more
I was also looking at dells 1730 Witch is nice but way to overprice HP has the hard ware but i dont trust their quality.

As far as spec im looking at I would love this

2.6 Core 2 T9500

32 bit OS i have ULT vista already

and 3gb of ram i like the HyperX from Kingston so yeah

Preferably 512mb 8700 or higher if you know something ATI has that is the same dual will be appreciated

A 1920x1080 Monitor along with two other external monitor ( I was think about Matrox dualhead2go for that)

My HD needs to be 7200rpm or faster Solid states are too much haha i also like the dual HD too

The wireless next gen N crd

and bluetooth enabled

Can you help end this suffering ?

    Good luck with that budget. T9500, 512MB graphics, a 1080p laptop monitor and two external monitors? I think you're getting into 3-3.5k territory BEFORE the monitors.

    Don't fear the HP, the hardware is solid.
    video will be the hard one. Are there new ATI chips in lappys yet?

    So just pointing out here that NONE of your screens will do 1920x1080, and your DualHead2Go will still throw in another $150... you're aware of all this?

    This one may be should pretty close to what you're looking for: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220284

    Also I thought MXM was a good thing. It pretty much means you can upgrade your graphics card IIRC.

    I don't think nVidia has put out a laptop mobo chipset in a while. I'm 99.9% sure it's going to be an Intel chipset.

    If I'm understanding your question correctly, you're asking about power management features for the CPU and the graphics card. The CPU power management is built into the processor. The graphics power management is built into the graphics processor. Pretty much all of the laptop graphics cards have such power management build in now. You usually won't have to do anything to activate either.
