I am interested in running Octane on a laptop, mostly for material creation and learning while away from the office. Not expecting to do any serious rendering. Does anyone have any experience with the Mobile processors? Gtx 560m,570m, 580m, or Quadro 2000m, 3000m. (I am assuming the newest 600 series chips are not supported yet?)
Are there any laptop models out there that have an onboard processor and a Nvidia gpu so that that the viewport lag is minimized? Looking for a reasonably price laptop mostly to run REVIT, Autocad, and Photoshop in the field, but also want to be able to run Octane at a marginal level.
Would also be interested in opions on upcoming Ivy Bridge if anyone has researched it.
Thanks for your suggestions.

Roeland, Thanks for the info!
Looks like the new laptops with Ivy Bridge are scheduled to be release this week. The biggest performance gain appears to be for systems running a discrete gpu. Excited to hear Optimus fills in for the display duties when rendering.
