Big Gaming Question for Macbook Pros.

The Bloomberg article from Monday says June 11 at WWDC:

In general it might be a good idea to wait a few weeks anyway if you don't need it right away. Intel is just now rolling out their new generation of CPUs (Ivy Bridge), and AMD and NVidia are rolling out their new generations of GPUs. Lots of companies have announced and are still announcing new laptops that are coming out over the next month that use these new parts.

Then that means it will process better than the laptops I mentioned. I guess I can wait but I need to know the specs and price. If it is going to be more than 1800 dolars then forget it.

Nobody knows those for sure yet. Once it's announced then you could do a pretty good comparison between it and the competing laptops that are based off of the same generation of parts.

One other point is I saw someone mention about the trackpad. If you're planning on playing games like Skyrim and Battlefield, definitely plan on buying a mouse to plug in. Any laptop trackpad is going to be a frustrating experience for those kinds of games.

Found this Alienware M14X AM14X-5283SBK.
IDK but is GT 555m and 635m the same?

I like the sound of 14" inches

Bumpness?

MacBook Pro 15" 2009
2.66 GHz intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB Ram,
Nvidia 9600m GT (256MB VRAM),
500G hard drive


I play Black Ops and MW3 on it on high resolutions and settings no AA they both play perfect.

Asking questions about Gaming Laptops on a Mac forum = Barking up the wrong tree.

The gamer geeks are at the other end of the hall: http://www.bestgaminglaptop.net/
They spec a top 10 list of gaming laptops from $800 - $2000.
Enjoy.
