    Just curious before I really pull the trigger and go for my first powerful gaming system, I'm weighing all my options. Does anyone Have a picture of the m17x and the m18x side by side. I still need this laptop for school. Not on a day to day basis but still would need to take it here and there. So lugging a system around in a designated back pack wont bother me to much.

    I went to bestbuy to check out the 17in sizes, but i didn't see a 18. I know its 1 inch, but it would be nice to see a actually detailed comparison. If anyone could or has the actually picture please post them it would be awesome.

    Hi. First of all I want to say that I've been reading a lot about m17x r3 and m18x. The picture shown by Brabostaan is actually of both lap tops, but I want you watch this.

    It looks much bigger in the picture by brabo cause is a different angle of vision and I guess a pro cam was used, so the focus helped to the m18x to seem much bigger.
