i would like to also know if win10 is still bricking m18xR2
its time to format and would like to try out the win10 free upgrade

you wont regret getting one mate
they are awesome laptops
me personally coming from asus ROG laptops. the dell alienware are well worth their money
next time though i will go the nvidia route. 7970m xfire works great but i rather not wait 3 months for proper drivers to come out
bought it when it first came out and started using it with the 12.5 drivers

svl7 - any idea what changes were made to the bios? dell doesnt post any change log.

how much ram do you have in your m18xr2? if you have just 8gb, upgrading to the faster 1866 might be more worth your while. if your going from 1600(C11) to 1600(C9) the difference is nothing you can see.

after purchasing the 3heatpipe for XM cpus i couldnt find any fans with more flow that could keep things cooler. sound isnt an issue for me. if you do find replacement fans let me know. only thing i thought about was doing some modding to the bottom of the lappy to get more airflow
