I need someone to do me a favour if possible. My laptop is getting old, so I'm looking at getting a new one. I've got a Core2duo P8600 (2.4Ghz) with an ATI HD 4330 256mb. I've made a selection of laptops. My old gfx has opengl 2 support and shader model 4. Poser previews are ok, but not really great. I need to render (a lot) to see what I'm really getting.

I'm now looking at getting a laptop with a Geforce 610M (or something similair) or a Radeon HD mobile 6xxx/7xxxx series with 1gb. These cards do have shader model 5 and Opengl 4.x support. I imagine that should look quite differently in a Poser preview.

OK, here's the question..... can anyone show me one or more screenshot of one or more scene in if possible Poser 8 or Pro 2010, with opengl preview and shader textured on? What's in the scene doesn't really matter, perhaps with an IBL light set in it? Of course with a gfx card similair to the ones mentioned above. This way I can compare it ith my current gfx card.

I'm also wondering if the intel I3 2350m is any good with Poser and DS. It seems to be one of the fastest i3's and according to benchmarks in is almost double as fast as what I have now. The alternative would be an AMD A6 34xx series, but according to tests, even though it has 4 cores, it's not as fast as the I3 2350m. Does anyone have the I3 2350m or one of the AMD A6 34xx and how well do they preform? The lowest I would go is the Intel B960 2.2ghz, still a lot faster then my current one. I don't want to spent lot's of money on the machine, just need a decent one, so I don't think I would go i5 or so.

Any help, advice and preview screenshots would be awesome!
