    Well guys, I need your help here.

    I'm thinking of buying a M17xR3 but I don't know which one to order, with 3D or without it. :( I already own a M15x with a 460M and would love to put a 6970M in my next venture because I liking playing my games maxed out. But, I was wondering what is the quality of 3D in this laptop. Is is worth going over a powerhouse of a card like 6970M?

    Any input is appreciated. :)

    Remember the 3d is inside the screen(like looking through the window) not in front of you popping out.



    That's pretty much it. It's still quite a cool feature(although for most it tires your eyes out pretty quickly/dizzy effect sadly as I found out)
