    I have an M15X (i7 X920 - GTX 460M - 8GB RAM) that I've had for 3 years now and I'm looking to get something new. Now what I'm wondering is, should I get get a new AW? or show I just upgrade my M15 with a better videocard and stuff? Anyone have a suggestion?

    Thanks for advance

    I say upgrading it with a better video card might not be a bad idea. Though I think it might be worth it just to grab a new AW machine. I've got a friend who got a killer deal on the M17x R4 recently. :D 1080p screen + 7970M for $1,488 I think?
