Bad news for u guys. M18x not going to launch in malaysia

driver sweeper...

my desktop

can tell me anyone selling it xD?? coz i dunno who sells it..... so its not possible to book online ady?

i just knew today (after>4 months) that the eSATA port on the right of the m15x beside the USB port can be used as a USB port

that is so true...
just realized that there is 3 usb port when my friend forcefuly plug it on esata instead of unplugging my cooler.. hahaha
but esata port is kind of tight so should be careful not to plug unplug roughly... broken means, hardware replacement..

Doubled comfirm d, Malaysia WONT be launching any M18x(entire south asia included)

How much you letting go of the ATI 6970? Do let me know as I may need 1 for my M15x. Currently coming out with a budget for an upgrade from my ATI 5870. Which means I have an extra ATI 5870 and 1 NVidia GTX 260M. Do you think I can get buyers for these? 

Yes bro. You guys have been so active Im happy to see lotsa feedback here nowadays. I told the good Doc. these days I will be busy with exams and work.

Yeah of course if I sell will see cheaper. But i wanna know the price our good bro from Canada is thinking of letting go. Price for the ATI 6970 is pretty steep if bought from EU or US still at the moment. Prices are all above USD$ 800. But you get a 2GB card.

From the test conducted and used by our crazy daring ALIENWARE Brothers from the States, yes the ATI 6970 2GB DDR5 card is compatible with the Alienware M15x. So those with this discontinued model like me still have a hope of updating our systems albeit by taking a bit of a risk by operating our precious monsters and spending a lil. The rationale is that the 75-100 Watt ATI 6970 is still within power consuming limits of the 150 watt put on the M15x model. Pair that with a non XM Proc will be best but some in the US are using it with the 920XM and the 940XM even. Their benchmarks for VANTAGE are like 14k or even more last I heard but temps got to be controlled. Yes we will have to use speedfan or other software to either MAX the fans while using or lower it. Also I think the mouting will have to be modified somewhat so will be a bit trickier compared to when I Mod the 260M to the 5870. At the moment I still haven't the time to go thru the whole steps laid out but prolly end of this month I will have more time. TIll then will drop by to see you guys here.

p;S Thanks Doc for tirelessly making and udpating the threads!  

ooo, so does this means that let's say in the future, i would want to upgrade my M17x's GC to a newer model, it is possible, am i right? provided i need the right set of tools and skills?

where to buy graphics card upgrades for alienwares ?

Just shaRING the link(came out a few weeks back) that GTX 560M is in for the M18x in June. Wonder how SLi on that would be? M17x has single as well.

Now wondering about the GTX 580M.

Hey You never know. Except maybe the power consumption would be too high lols. Have yet to find info regarding the power consumption but from the looks of the writeups online, this doesn't seem to be better than the current GTX 485M.
