AMD 7970m available for buy

[widezu69]

It just got released today but unsure about the 7970m. That laptop does look real cool though and the only one that, when out, will have a performance AMD card with a 120Hz 3D screen

"On the other hand, AMD's latest Radeon HD 7970M, codenamed "Wimbeldon", is among the fastest graphics cards available at the moment, and it shows in the benchmarks. Both the 15.6" Racer 2.0 and the 17.3" Panther 4.0 can be equipped with the HD7970 and both excelled in benchmarks.

Powered by a Core i7-3820QM, 8GB of RAM and a 120GB Intel 520 SSD, the Racer 2.0 managed to total a score of P20753 in 3DMark Vantage. On the other hand, the Panther 4.0 was powered by an Intel Core i7 3960X Extreme Edition and dual HD 7970s in CrossFireX, but managed to score a P31127 in 3DMark Vantage."

Cool! I had no idea the 7970m was that fast

EDIT...sarcasm

So dual 7970M with the best CPU get 31k, with OC maybe 40k? And Geo already achieved 25k with a single card

[SlickDude80]

That would be monumental...40K from a laptop

The 7970m with a small OC gets 22-23k vantage in its sleep. I would love to see 40k in a crossfire system

It shows our Vantage benchmarks were accurate.

40k overall will be tricky to achieve because I've only seen laptops do 33k Vantage CPU and that was the M18x, so it will bring the overall score down for once... hah. Still, the GPU will score very high in Crossfire

ya, those numbers are spot on for stock clocks.

i can't wait to see what 2 heavily overclocked 7970's will do. Someone will push the heck out of xfire 7970's. I bet 40k is achievable

There is already a driver page for M17x R4 on Dell support but there's nothing in there yet.

Hey guys!

What is the fastest way to get this Radeon 7970M card when coming from Europe? and where should i get it?

I dont really care about pricing i just want it as fast as possible :b

I was looking at what price i had to pay if i used upgradeyourlaptop/Eurocom in Canada, and unfortunately my country Denmark will add +37% tax if i import it!

It would push the price up to 875 USD, which is bad oO!

Hope anyone here can help me
