    Will Alienware replace the GTX 660m with the new and up and coming GTX 670mx as their default starter gpu? As you may or may not know, the 670mx is about 15-20% faster than the Fermi 670m and about 30-35% faster than the Kepler 660m.

    Then offer the 675MX as an upgrade maybe $100-200 cheaper than the 680m Kepler. So base $1499 with a default GTX 670mx then around +$200-300 for 675mx.

    Or they could stay with the default gtx 660m kepler at $1499 then offer 670mx kepler as a $100 dollar upgrade.
