    Has anyone had its M14X R1 mb replaced recently?
    The thing that interests me is if Dell still has old mbs with gt555 soldered or you get a gt650?

    The GT650 is exclusively for the R2, if need be it will be replaced for the same one you currently have.

    Yup, there are still plenty on stock. We always keep some available as long as there are still computers under warranty.
