Original receipts mean nothing since you voided the warranty...

What processor is in there? Obviously, you can't have two of them in the same laptop .

Also, could you post 3dMark scores with the current CPU? A different CPU can affect the score, even if it does not significantly change the gaming experience.

Thanks!

Took the X7800 out. Just meant to say if you upgrade the cpu to something better you can get around that much

Sorry for the confusion

The one that bestbuy is offering is similar but it doesn't have the hard drive upgrade and such.
