wah..got New GPU for M15x on Dell website...

a. 1GB DDR3 ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5730
b. 1GB GDDR5 ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5850

but luckily still the NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 260M most expensive  brows.gif  brows.gif

Woah, just went to check it up, and it turned out true...
But why is ATI card cheaper than NVIDIA?
Especially when the ATI HD5850 has better performance than GTX260M.
I'm confuse!?!? rclxub.gif
Man why didn't they came out with the optional upgrades sooner? I would have chose it.
Do they accept upgrades?

Well I guess I have to wait till Julchin_09 to post some pictures and maybe write a small tutorial on the "Upgrading From GTX260M to ATi HD5870" topic! rclxm9.gif
Should have enough money to get the GPU but not the skills to change it doh.gif

What sorta 'fakkups'?
Driver issues?
Another thing is when I play Crysis on my system, the mouse seems to be off, I need to move slightly to the right to click the tabs, rather than exactly on the tabs weird.
Did some Googling and updating, which doesn't seem to work.
Wonder if any of you experienced this prob before?

Hmmm, don't know about that, maybe give Dell a call?
Too much dust? Or something's wrong with the cooling mechanism?

it seems something went wrong with your Alienware FX LED. have any pictures to share? if you contact Dell Support, they will ask you to email to them the picture of the faulty area too.

and yes, just call or email to Dell, they will fix that for you FOC  smile.gif
do M15x have Bluetooth module built in? (we call it module or what? i don't really know actually doh.gif )

because when i try to transfer few stuff using bluetooth just now, it said that i have to connect to external bluetooth or something. then i checked my Bluetooth hardware and guess what, it shown none, as in attached picture. to other Alienware owner, is that normal? i don't familiar with this stuff since i don't use Bluetooth connection at all... sweat.gif

Guess I have to wait till SLI/Crossfire cards are M15x "equipable" grumble.gif
What actually makes those dual GPUs hard to be equipped in a M15x? The size maybe? rclxub.gif
I'm just too lazy to actually Google all this! Leave it to the experts here!
