That's a pretty nice laptop. How much luck are you having with crossfire? I've got two 6990M's in mine, but when I turn crossfire on, performance is visually unsmooth even though my framerate is through the roof in any game i play.

Thanks! The thing cost INR 34599. Crossfire's great, except it works nicely only on some games. NFS The Run went from 30 fps to 40, but MM2 went down from 35 to 20. :?
PS: Pictures on the way :D

Looks nice, fairly similar to mine. I also used to have a (now 9 years old) very weak buisness grade laptop, then I started getting better ones.

Isnt it insane how powerful laptops are now? A few years ago, it was unheard of to have a quad core in one. Now they're hooked up with stuff like crossfire, and even beat most desktops. :o

Really nice notebook, good specifications for little more than 500 Euro (in India this price should be pretty much, I guess). :wink: I don't really like Acer brand, though, and they're known for quality issues. However, enjoy it. :)
