congrats on the new thread.. with new games coming out like project cars, witcher3, and not so new GTAv... i think i need an upgrade from 770m to 980m...

or the RM3k GTX980m is overkill for my m17xR4?

what do you guys think?

i've been lurking for days at emc2 thread... still pondering between the 1k difference of 970 n 980..save 1k for 970 or go all out for 980..
and i see he offer installation package too... which is nice. smile.gif

btw, anybody with m17xr4 upgraded to gtx980m yet? i remember last time horns are running 880 right?

Unfortunately its on the very high side. My suggestion is to strip the spec into the Basic, and put an "add-on" hardware section below the Basic Spec.

Currently customer can get the latest M17 with GTX970M around 5.1-5.5k as Dell MY are giving huge discount among their staff. Maybe, just maybe after the wave passed, you can elevate back the price, but still not up to the current price.

My humble $0.20

thank you bro... i really appreciate your appraisal...
i will take your advise, maybe swap the rams to basic 4gb ram... take out the SSD, sell the bag separately.... maybe can sell around 3k++.. most guys pm me around that price.. smile.gif
