I am thinking of buying an Alienware m17x which I will use for gaming mostly.

At the moment you can order dual ATI 4800 graphics but I am wondering if I should wait for the 5800 version. If so any idea how soon they will be available from Alienware?

Many thanks

The 5870 is available in the new Asus G73 line. I chose it over the m17x for that very reason. The Dell/Alienware online support had no idea when they would offer it.
