Just wondering because I may have sold my m17x and am considering an m11x for portability and wanted to know if i can reuse my 8gb kingston hyperx 1600 mhz memory in the m11x with the upgraded i7 cpu option on the r3?
also is the ssd sata 2 or 3 dell offers?

I think it support up to 1333mhz for the ram and the SSD is SATA II (256GB Solid State Drive SATA 3Gb/s) but the R3 supports SATA III.

I've tried this:
Newegg.com - Kingston HyperX 8GB (2 x 4GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1866 HyperX Plug n Play Laptop Memory Model KHX1866C11S3P1K2/8G
in the M11x-R3 and it still only runs at 1333MHz
And it looks like it also doesn't support XMP profiles in the BIOS... in fact there's hardly any overclocking/tweaking options in the BIOS which is a disappointment
Can r3 use hyperx to its potential like the m17?
