Have you ever heard of the term 'Gaming Rig'? It refers to usually to a persons most powerful PC used usually for gaming and entertainment.

I remember just a few years ago that when we wanted to be gamers, we had to build our rig from scratch, limiting to to being a desktop.

But as the years past, more and more high end compoments are being developed for laptops and even SLI (the use of more than one graphics card) has been introduced in larger sized laptops.

3 years ago - NVIDIA go 7900 gs, NVIDIA go 7900 gt, NVIDIA go 7950 gtx
