towards the optimal laptop

The always excellent French site Portables4Gamers has benchmarked two mobile gaming beasts: a Cizmo Qi1840 (based on the barebone Clevo X8100) with the Nvidia GeForce GTX 285M SLI and an Alienware M17x with the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4870 CrossFireX. As expected, the result depends a lot on the game and the settings, so look at the charts carefully.

Update: Notebook Critic also publishes a comparison, but with the 280M instead of the 285M.
