I was looking at a laptop with a 9800M GS, and I was wondering if it will do good. The numbers on notebook check (using FF or else I would post a link) look good but i am not really sure. Does anyone know if it is a good mobile graphics card?

Considering what they usually put in laptops, that is a very powerful card for a laptop.

Should be able to play anything you throw at it on high.

Yes, it is pretty good for a mobile chipset. Among the best mobile chipsets.

Just so you know, you can force copy and paste in FF using ctrl+c, ctrl+v respectively.

That's a pretty good one, if you want it go for it.

I honestly think this is a better buy and product overall though, what i plan on getting here:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834101166
Better GPU and RAM and a bigger Screen. Only downsides are no bluetooth, no blu-ray, and a little bit weaker CPU but it balances out.

PLUS you can get it cheaper at best buy either online http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp;jsessionid=KTZ3K3OIZPITVKC4D3DVAHI?skuId=9172511&st=780&lp=1&type=product&cp=1&id=1218043606827 or you can actually get one at your local best buy too. Heads up though, you may get a 1440x900 as opposed to a 1920x1200 resolution model but just ask and they may give you one. It's a bit more convenient to get it locally if you dont mind the change of features.
