    well im buying my wife a m17 r3, i talked her out of the m14 because she wants a number pad, and the bigger gpu option (580) over the 555gt.

    im buying from canada, so im sure all the SSD provided would be the same brand, so for a 256gb ssd its $275, but it comes standard with the m14 now :D .. maybe because of the Razer Blade?... lol

    i just want to know if its a quality SSD and its its a sata3 6gbs..?


    oh and i asked dell about warranty extensions on my m18, they said 450 for 1 year, and 900 for 3 year extension... i have 1.5 years left right now...
    but i wanted to find out how much for 580's or if they would be free with my warranty extension,
    best deal they would do is $900 for the 3 years, 900 for 2x 580's, and they would buy back my 6970's for 200 each...?


    i just want frigging 580's!!!!!! :confused:
