unreal25 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 The EPP discount on this laptop is insane: 2% even! -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Brian Posted April 29, 2011 Author Founder Share Posted April 29, 2011 Wow a whole 2%, that's enough to put money away for my future unborn child's college fund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unreal25 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 The way their pricing is going, if you opt for M18x with GTX 580M SLI, 2% of that might just do the trick for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 LOLDoes anyone actually have one of these yet? I'm interested in an end user review or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenxowens792 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Like others I have the battery shutdown issue... I know dell is trying to look into the issue. Basically it means if you try to run a game on the nvidia video card full power it shuts down. So we are stuck with the intel hd 3000 for gaming right now.BW,StevenX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 So Nvidia while plugged in and Intel while unplugged? I thought that was how optimus was supposed to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenxowens792 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Other machines such as the m11x allow dedicated GPU gaming (nvidia) while on battery. I could take my old m11x r1 and play cod mw2 at the local barnes and noble for about 2 hours before calling it quits. Nothing like making the masses stair at something cool like the m11x rather than the girl with blue hair reading Twilight in the corner. Man I tell you what.. if I was a single guy I completely believe the m11 or m14 would easily help you break the ice with someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unreal25 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Haha true... I brought M17xR2 couple of times into my office and left the door open when I was working. Every time someone would pass by, they'd stop and they "Holy crap this thing is huge!". A big mean gaming machine. When I leave the office I turn off the lights so anyone who passes by can see the lights glowing in the dark. (We have a window on our door here.) Gah.... I want M13x with anodized aluminum and a good screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
