The 8600GT really is a worthless turd b/c it can't play any DX10 games so why bother with it. Get a 7950GT or wait a few weeks and get an 8800GT for $225 when the prices drop back down to MSRP.
 
^^ Seconded. The mobile one in my laptop is shit. Go with the 7xxx or wait for the GTs to come down.
 
Dude frys had a bfg 7900gs for $80 a couple of weeks ago... that $150 is waay to much.
 
... hang out in the FS area and grab a 8800 GTS 320MB for 200 or less in a week or so
