ot: I wonder if you put a computer case upside down, if the graphics card would be cooled better, because you know, the graphics cards fans and heatsinks are all directed down on the GPU, and since hot air rises, not falls. would it work?

My friend's looking for a gaming laptop for around $1200.
I found this or this but does anyone have any other recommendations?

The 7970m is a better card I'm pretty sure.

It's also cheaper.

The one's he picked are Intel based systems. So of course the AMD based system is cheaper. For solely gaming AMD is fine.

Well, no stuff? What else would he be doing with a laptop with a 660m in it?

Go with the i7

why lol?

all the i7 adds is hyperthreading and that's not worth $100 if you're just gaming
