This refresh to Gateway’s gaming notebook line offers the same design but seriously beefed-up performance.In 2008, Gateway made a splash with the P-7811 FX, a gaming rig that offered blistering performance for just $1,399. A little more than a year later, Gateway is following that effort up with an even more powerful (and expensive) system in the P-7808u FX Edition. This latest version (priced at $1,799) packs an Intel Core 2 quad-core processor, 4GB of RAM, and Nvidia GeForce 9800M GTS graphics with a full gig of dedicated video memory, which lets it breeze through the latest 3D titles. However, while the guts have improved, the industrial design remains the same and is starting to feel a bit stale. This rig is worth the splurge, but in this price range, it’s not quite as good as the competition.
