Hello bros, Currently got an offer,

I am in the middle of seaching for a gaming notebook. Suddenly, i found out about this legendary machine M17x R1,

Mind you, i am really into Alienware because of the design and the fancy lighting.

I am gonna use it mainly for gaming and i dont do much PS.

-Intel Core2 Extreme Quad QX9300 2.53GHz (12MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB)
-8 GB DDR3 SDRAM 1066MHz (2 DIMMs)(Upgraded from original 6GB)
-500 GB Free Fall Sensor Hard Drive (7200 RPM)
-1GB SLi dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280M
-17 inch UXGA+ 1900x1200 pixels(bright,perfect condition screen without any dead pixels,marks etc.)
-Intel 6300 AGN,WLAN card(upgraded from original)
-9 Cell Primary Battery(good,100 percent)
-Bluetooth 2.1 module with EDR
-High Definition Audio 5.1 Surround Sound

For the price of RM3800, should i grab this? Or should i grab others instead such as G55/G53?

TQ in advance.

ps: i heard these model got battery consumption problem, is it true? And can it be solved using  update?
*
Bro if u plan to upgrade ur gpus later so can consider tat R1 but if u think needs a really good gaming experience right now better get those g55/g53 instead...btw R1 system ady far behind tho..
