Like we would afford to even think about such a system.

Btw I get about the same 3DMark score with my 2 700USD iMac.

Hmmm I doubt you get anywhere near 19k with that setup.. Its nice though!

Look here.. 6970M Vantage P11k, Thats HALF my score of 18.9k. (incidentally I got 19.3k with a small CPU OC)

Aren't those Vaio Z laptops $2k? I thought they already came with an external GPU/BluRay thingy.

I was talking overall 3D score where your pic shows just below 14K and my iMac with a slightly OC:d vidcard gets just above.
Dunno score for GPU only.

Anyways, just a reflection.

$4k for a Vaio Z. I have a 2010 Vaio Z128, the new Vaio Z2 series have sony's version of a thunderbolt port. Though the external drive/GPU on the new Z2 is barely better than the old integrated GT330M. Such a waste of a great concept!
