Hey, that notebook is super primo top of the line. This will blow the Acer Ferrari into the weeds. I have had the pleasure to get my hands on one and all I can say is WOW. It will handle not only games but high end editing and graphics programs.......If you've got the cash it you will not regret it..................check these links

Hey, I wanted that laptop for school, but it was to expensive :(

But anyways, you probably wont be able to play Colin on high with all the eye candy because you need a better card than a go 7700. I think a 8800GTS might max it, but I am not sure. As for other games, I think it will do fairly well.

I think Flight Simulator X will do ok, but once again thats a real new game, and it requires a lot of juice. It should be able to play older FPS games fine, like BF2, all maxed and highest resolution (I think its 1280x1024)

I guess you'll just have to find out... If you do buy it, then you can go here: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest

It will tell you if your pc can or cant play the game you choose to play.

Laptops aren't really made for gaming. Like Ray said a 7700 wont do max for those games. Plus even if you get one that does a couple of months later it wont do it for some other game and you wont be able to upgrade stuff in the Laptop.

If you want to play games build your own desktop.

I dont know :S what i should do.
I like racing games and GTA games.
SO i dont care about FS:X i think its fairly boring anyway.
If i ran DIRT at 1024x768 Resolution on this spec on High withou Aliasing and Filtering would i be able to get 30fps at least?
Would games Like TOca Race Driver 3 Run? on high?
Would a game Like GTA:SA run on high?
A game Like Tomb Raider Legend?

you can try ibuypower.com for gaming laptops or desktops. They have very good customer satisfaction and good reviews overall. theres a decent variety you can use to customize your thing except theres more desktop options then laptop. i think a 8800 nvidia video card with 2gb ram memory is good for gaming also.
