Because of several issues with my r3, Dell support offered me 2 choices: 1. Exchange 2. Return for complete refund of original purchase price + 20% discount on re-order (I obviously picked the 2nd option) I finally got to re-order my slightly upgraded r3 today 317-6114 1 Intel Core i7 2720QM 2.2GHz (3.3GHz Turbo Mode, 6MB Cache) 320-1939 1 2GB GDDR5 AMD Radeon HD 6970M 320-1933 1 17.3-inch WideFHD1920 x 1080 60Hz WLED 318-0395 1 Slot-Load Dual Layer DVD Burner (DVD+-RW, CD-RW) returned system: 2630QM, 460M, 1080p 60Hz, DVD Would have gone with M14x if it were slated to offer a different GPU.

That's probably because Sketchup does not support dual GPU Voted 6970: 1. Price-power 2. MUCH higher performance in Autodesk programs vs. equivalent non-Tesla/Quadro Nvidia GPU (except when rendering @ 3dsmax) 3. Optimus 4. Verde exclusion (in the case of m17x-r3)

Nice one, Dane how's stability with higher clocks?

I lol'd 10chars of lol

epic fail. Last one sold 3mins before I got there. They were sold out at all the other stores too

Actually, typing that out made me realize how unlikely it is that they'll still be there in 2 hours. Leaving the office in 3 mins, wish me luck!

ordered 2 so wife can facetime with her mom. Going to try and pick up a 3rd in about 2 hours. Apparently the local bestbuy got 120 of them in today.

Very nice work, Inap. How much is a set of those going to set me back?

This is more random/incomprehensible than funny....but whatever

I wonder what temps will be like on those ES 2920 Tempting

Not sure if anyone posted this here yet (skipped to page 8 and read from there) When I was looking into installing BIOS A03 @r3 I noticed a typo in the description source The only reason this is potentially exciting to me is if the 18x and r3 will be sharing a bios. I actually held off on purchasing a 6970M just in case (CUDA is kind of important to me). 2920XM would be nice, too! Maybe the bios OC options will actually be useful with one of those First post. kunekaden @ NBR Nice site!
