No Problem..Jason,
You know..you have the option to use the 30GB instead of the 80GB
and I would lower the price about $150

why don't you install it for us?

Heatsinks are hard to come by...due to it's milling at a machine shop.
I Figured it is only deserving of a 128MB video card....
not the FX5200

I don't know of any 128 mb cards for notebooks.. even the 9700 is 64... irreguardless this won't be for much gamings, so I might just put it on there..

and is there any G compatibility with that or is it only b?

exactly..
the only laptop gpus that i know of that i know perform well in benchmarks is 9600 pro and 9700 pro (and of course the 9800 pro, thats thats way too much $$). If they are not pros they really suffer in gaming for laptops. 5700 ultra gpu is also really fast.. but then again these are pricey upgrade options. Your choice.

news flash: there are no pros for laptops...(ati)
