Still loving my M11x R2 however been having issues with the GPU. I couldn't stream Twitch.TV with older drivers and with recently released drivers I will get nvlddmkm.sys BSOD on some games instead.

If I'm not wrong, A08 fixes something related to GF116 GT 555M chip, however the stock A08 has the SATA III removed so you need to get SATA III fix here.

I seem to recall some driver support issues with going to 8.1 on the M14xR1. Does all of the AlienFX functionality still work?

Just installed an Evo 250GB myself and liking it so far.

I installed Windows 8.1 yesterday and noticed my Nvidia GPU won't kick in while running games. Updating drivers won't work. However, I went back to Windows 8 and upgraded it to Windows 8.1 and everything seemed to work fine. You can use all Command Center functions except the webcam login on Windows 8.1

Been planning to get 16GB RAM so I can disable pagefile and set up Primo Cache or RAMDisk.

Now I'm just wondering if 16GB RAM operates at 1333MHz or 1600MHz.

I have an M11x R2 and been overclocking my CPU past the factory limit (170MHz) along with ThrottleStop to achieve maximum performance. I'm still loving it despite the fact it's having a hard time running modern games and it overheats every 3 months.
