This might be helpful doc!!

Mr.Docter, not upgrade it's exhange the whole new unit M17x R2

I would still stick with Nvidia if possible for the sake of PhysX?? LoL

nice. but in term of gaming improvement:price ratio?

i did survey about difference of gaming experience GTX280M SLi and 4870 CF, and not much improvement.
but still, it slightly better than GTX280M SLi

this kind of upgrade is more likely to be choose for Alienware M17 user, since their best card on that time is 100% lesser performance than 4870 CF.

damn. thats great bro!

so the concept is Dell will take back your M17x, and they will send you brand new unit of M17x with latest hardwares on your doorstep?
oh btw, do 4870 even available in Malaysia?

please correct me if i am wrong

Mr.Docter, M17x R2 & 4870 will be available by end of this month or early next month.

lol, i got the comparison chart at Dell US site.

i believe most of rational user/gamer including me (not fanboy) will evaluate the value of the card based on gaming experience or suitability for their works.

so who performed best, thats gonna be my choice. if there is extra freatures (Physx, Eyefinate), i just consider it as a bonus

good to hear that

so my concept mentioned is right?

yep, i know buddy. since Dell MY still not available to choose 4870

Mr.Docter, as you had mention. Dell will take back my M17x, and they will send you brand new unit of M17x R2 with latest hardwares on my doorstep

OMG. that just like dream come true

anyway i hope to see some of Dell official statement about that. maybe in future

I think he can get the replacement due to his exchange within 14 days of purchase am i right? ..

Eugene91, yes exchange within 14 days of purchase

applies to all Dell purchases? regardless of the product and product line?

EDIT:

found it.

ahh i see.
while M71x is in your hand, care to benchmark it?

This is what he says too..

@Mr.Docter
I dont have m17x la.. lol.. waiting for M11x .. Maybe wait for M11x R2? lol..

ahaha that statement is meant for Idragon actually
i quoted your statement because i missed that point at the first place.

talking about M11x, not benchmark released yet?

LoL they did say the GT335 scoring about 5.7k on 3dmark06..
Looks like someone confirms its coming with the C2D SU7300 1.3GHz.. hmm.. I really hope its overclockable like the Asus UL series.. or with i5/i7 ULV on M11x R2? LoL.. Overclockable too of course hehe

Mr.Docter, nothing much to benchmark coz the spec is the same as yours.

just asking. who knows 8GB RAM will help in mark increment

LoL.. doesnt make any sense since the test only test the GPU and CPU only.. hmm
