    No clue what screen. It's 17 inch. I only play WC3, and run that at the highest resolution. It runs just fine, all settings on high.

    I have a 17" screen (Samsung) at 1920x 1200. I run everything at that res. HD video and games look great.

    The 6800go Ultra in the XPS Gen 2 is quite a bit faster than the standard 6800 in the 9300.

    Very true but if you got over $2000 to blow on a laptop sure then you cant beat a 6800 ultra.

    I remember reading the regular 6800 could be overclocked to 6800ultra speeds safely.

    Possible but I think you have to worry about heating issues doing that on a laptop.

    You gonna get the 1920x1200 screen? I think that is the one I would want to get.
