Guys, just got a special offer from my friend's Alienware M17x. Spec. as below:

Window 7 home premium 64bit
I7 3840QM
Nebula red
8GB 1600Mhz DDR3 ram (2x4GB)
Nvidia GTX680M 2GB DDR5
17.3" WideFHD screen
2TB 5400rpm HD in raid 0
8x DVD +-rw
RM6700

I have grabbed the offer and will be delivered on next few days. Do you guys think this is a good offer?
Initially, I was eying on Samsung Series 7 Gamer which cost RM5999 but the GPU is only GTX675M. Since this unit spots GTX680M, I think should be worth it by topping up a little bit more.

this is such a good deal

Initially, I thought the one I bought is without 3D because of the super discount I got from my friend. But what a surprise.
The 3D goggle is there rclxm9.gif

It is the 3D Vision 2. Tried with some 3D test clip. The 3D is very pronounce and look so real. Better than my 3DS,lol.

Planned to upgrade mine soon but a bit worry about software compatibility. Any idea which 3D player is good for Nvidia 3D vision 2?

not sure about 3D.

For windows 8, before you install it, the assistant will run a test to check compatibility and if any software isn't compatible, you have to uninstall them before you can proceed the installation.

The upgrade is easy, you dont need to reinstall anything, just simple installation + restart.

Thanks for the reply.

Anyway, found the app. to play the 3D movie, stereoscopic player can get the job.

Hi, guys. Wanna ask that if I wanna upgrade my Windows 7 to Windows 8, how's the process?

As right now I'm using alienrespawn as my backup and already backed one copy in a thumb drive.

If I upgrade to Windows 8, do I still keep the alienrespawn program? Thanks.
