gschneider Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Just ordered an M18x R2 after cance;ling my M17x-R4. I felt 680m in SLI was worth more to me than a single 680m. Future proofing and all that. spec in sig, although the hard drives I will be adding the day it turns up, also corsair vengeance ram.

gschneider Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 2x680m's is good enough for the next 3 yrs I can always overclock if I need more power to rival a 780m. After all its still kepler. I did get a good deal on it though. I was getting one 680m in the m17x, now I am getting two 680m's and in an 18x Besides whenever I order something it will be out of date in 10mins anyway.

Monual Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 An interesting thing happened to me. Just got my Alienware M18x. Ordered a GTX 675. It came with a GTX 680. I'm guessing they didn't have any more 675's so I'm not complaining.Bad news: I ordered 1866 memory. Big mistake. The Alienware BIOS only allows memory to run at 1333. It won't let you "overclock" to 1800 even if that's the speed at which the memory is rated. Trying to work around that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCollinson Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Just received my Alienware 18 last Wednesday. I ordered it in early June. I was among the unfortunate who had there order cancelled multiple times. Worth the wait though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
