    Are there any current or past 17 inch AW latptop that are oufitted with SLI GTX970M ? I asked because I placed an order yesterday on Dell's website for a refurbished laptop that listed the laptop to have "GTX970 x2" in the description so I thought it has SLI GTX970M . The order detail show two lines with the 970 cards...I know other laptop manufactures have SLI GTX970M in their laptop and assumed AW also come with it, so I clicked the purchase button. Now people are telling me AW does not have any 17in with SLI GTX970M. I am confused and want to cancel the order before it is shipped.
    Please enlighten me since I never have a AW before.

    No, it's a mistake. Their employees are... Well, let's just not even go there.

    It would appear that you ordered the Alienware 17 R2. It comes with a 4710HQ and a single GTX 970M (3GB).

    As above, after the m17x R2 the 17" machines we sell haven't had that feature.
