I'm looking at buying a laptop, i'm pretty intelligent in the field of normal computers, but the one thing i'm sketchy on is graphics cards in laptops, i don't know which is better than what, and what i sthe best vs whats not. So my question to you guys is.....

NVIDIA® SLI™ Dual GeForce® 8700M GT 512MB2 GDDR3

or

Single NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 260M, 1GB


I can provide more specs if you guys need them, but a short relevant answer would be best, thanks.
 
You'd be better off with the 260M, depending on the other specs of the laptops.

Can you provide the make+model of each laptop?
 
There are many configurations available for the M17x; other than the single 260M, what other parts were you thinking of getting if you went for that laptop?
 
Intel® Core™2 Duo P8600 2.4GHz (3MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB)
4GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1066MHz
17-inch WideXGA+ 1440x900 (900p)

And most importantly...
ALIENFX COLOR Quasar Blue =]
 
In that case I would go with the Alienware, depending on the price.
 
It's roughly $400 more than the xps, and it's better in all aspects, i was just curious about the graphics card. Thanks for the help.
 
Single NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 260M, 1GB as the GeForce 8 series is getting a little old in the tooth.
