Come on .. don't be so sensitive, I am just pointing out what I see here and NBR forum. I did not say anything offend u right? Actually, the post is open to anyone answer. It is only a discussion.
Wait a second, what I am asking is purely from a technical point of view. Like some said CPU won't affect game except SC2, but in fact some M17x r3 users in NBR benchmark their 6990m, the one with higher cpu(2820qm) are really getting better vantage score. Thus I am getting confuse again.
I am not trying to act like professional. All those written are reading from both Lowyat and NBR forum for the past 2 months after I decided to get a gaming notebook.
Actually I also regret to ask those question in this thread and putting u name on it. (I will edit my initial post with your name remove, I think it is better, if not it looks like I try to attack u, this is not my intention.) What I really asking in the very post first is "why no refurbish system with 6990m ?" Then u told me because nvidia is better? This make me more confuse, so I posted out what I read and after thought in those forum.
Why suddenly rich become a famous word. haha.. I never say I am rich or anything. And I NEVER say buying refurbish is bad. What I dun understand is, why ppl dun wait a little bit longer, save up $$, to get a better graphic card. After all they are buying a very expensive high end laptop.
When I asked ppl for opinion for graphic card in NBR, 9 out of 10 told me to get a better one, since upgrading in future is expensive and troublesome.
I am not rich, of coz I have to lowball.. hehe.. Dell online price is ridiculous high. You reseller in lowyat are giving a MUCH BETTER price. Of coz, it is better to deal with u guys. I am not crazy or stupid to throw away $$ like this.
When did I blame other, they may not get it because the better card was not out yet when they purchased their machine or some other reasons.
But seriously, isn't it a forum for people to ask what they want to know except personal attack. So only ppl already purchase alienware can talk here and no other?
I am not pin pointing u, but from last your 2 sentence from last post. I really feel that u have an attitude problem. Please behave.
i would advise if you already have the 6970m, it's probably a good idea to wait for the 7000m series GPUs, unless you can find a 6990m cheap. the upgrade is mostly for people that are stuck with 460m, 6870ms.
and for the refurbish system with 6990m question, i believe the 6990m was only launched for like 1 months+? so give it time, bet you when the next new lines of GPU comes out, you'll see many people returning their 6990ms or cancel their orders..etc.
I don't think you've done anything wrong here, resellers can be defensive if you try to ask how they get their supplies, it's natural.
