Looking to purchase a Sager laptop from xoticpc
now it comes standard with an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz 4MB, 1333Hz FSB
for $100 more I could upgrade to an Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0 GHz 4MB, 1333Hz FSB
or for $105 an Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4 GHz 8MB, 1066Hz FSB
next higher upgrade is $365 so I'm not really interested in going higher than that.
other than that as far as my build goes I'm going with the standard 80 GB HD since I know I can purchase bigger HDs for cheaper than what they are offering. I am going with the 4GB memory since they are currently running a special so it's just $50 for the upgrade. 8800m GTX SLI. 1920x1200 screen. WinXP SP2 (Vista I hear has issues with SLI and I don't think the newest games require Vista, correct me if I'm wrong) 3 year parts & labor with LCD accidental damage protection from xotic. everything else standard.
approx $3600-3700 depending on processor.
recommendations and suggestions much appreciated, including if you know of any better vendors (US).
