As I am selling Dell, the best part is when you talk and show the warranty Proof, NBD (Next Business day). But the design mostly Inspiron sighhh, more classic then MSI classic series

you already answered it. there is very limit Unit on Processors + no Dedicated GPU has being given to us as reseller.
other hand you might say there is very limit Options for Dell buyers in terms of processor.

My 3 Top Warranty Support should be :-

1- Dell ~ so far the best in terms of timing / troubleshooting / support.
2- Acer ~ quite ok for me, only matter on timing which i have been send 1 of my client notebook to claim warranty for DVD Drive it tooks around a month to settle it ( Acer Penang )
3- Not decide yet since never try on claiming other brands :-)

For faulty cause by factory default then YES.... Breaks down by own then i need a big dictionary to explain,each package you need to pay more and most likely it will be more advantage :-)

Coz people thought those mahal thing got more quality ,branded an more stylish when you use it, like macho la :-p

Non dedicated GPU got a lot options for you mate, Inspiron or vostro family, but unfortunately no AMD processor option rite now, the lowest one also Intel B815 processor.If you still in planning to get Dell once, then you need to swift from AMD to Intel ( and i believe ) the answer is NO, since you are AMD die hard :-)

enough said
mate can you share with us how long does Dell take to Change a new set of Inspiron 14R to you
