Hi all.. i have planned to buy a laptop and found the dell inspiron 6400 to fit my needs except one thing.. i want to play games as well but the highest option they have is ati x1400 which is not meant for latest games.. so does anybody know if i can request them to fit it with atleast a nvidia 7800 Go ? do they encourage such requests.. if anybody has already done so or has any idea.. please try to help me.. Thanx..

OH forgot to ask.. also tell me if there is any alternative to this config.. budget is arnd 60k.. Thanx

^^ Dell Inspiron 9400 (17" ws) has customization for Go7900GS but that could turn out to be a 75k+ affair. You can probably ask Dell for the Go7900GS on the 6400 - could be done ideally speaking instead of the X1400 but cooling and heasink size used on the 9400 would be an issue to fit in on the relatively smaller 6400.

You wouldnt find anything for hi-end gaming on a 60k laptop, accept it and stick to a descent X1400 or Go7400. Gaming is not all about playing latest games at the max resolutions.

Thanx for the reply @Sourabh..
you r rite about the 9400, it has option of Go7900gs but also notice that it has the the ati x1400 as standard so the size of both cards will be the same and as the x1400 also comes in 6400, the 7900gs could be installed in the 6400.. I had found a nice guide on this.. goto this link.. *www.legitreviews.com/article/349/1/ .. a dell E1705 is shown which comes with x1400 as standard which is replaced by a Go7800. Notice both cards have same size.. so i thought it might be possible for the inspiron 6400 as well.. neways thanx for helping me out.. :)

Intel plans to have 85% of its mobile processor sales in the form of core duo and core 2 duo by the end of this year. Forget about them taking over the Indian market entirely, when we still see 3xx celeron M in most entry level notebooks. So for them to go main stream, you would have to do away with celeron M, pentium M and then core duo's. too far fetched isnt it?
