    I have a M9750 and am thinking about an Area 51 M15X
    Mine has the 2.33ghz cpu and the 7950gtx sli configuration with 4gb DDR 667 while the M15X will have the X9000 extreme cpu with a single 8800gtx WITH 4 GB ram,same bus speed and 1080 wuxga matte screen......Do you guys think it beneficial to upgrade?

    Thanks for the reply.Is there alot in it between the two?,i'm thinking in DX 10 terms because i'm not sure yet if i want to stick with DX 9....i've read that the M15 has build quality and heat issues but thought i'd seek out a professional real world user opinion....i really like the M9750,the build quality is fantastic and it's the coolest running laptop i've ever seen,just wondering if the grass would be greener with the M15....
