    No idea, it's under a generic dell name with that card in the binder.

    And under the laptop it says 'Ultimate Gamer"

    Question, how do I check if I have intel turbo memory?

    It wouldn't help much anyway. I think it'd help more if you only had like 1 GB of RAM.

    I noticed the keyboard backlight is much brighter and evenly lit on that M15x, as opposed to my M17.

    Anyways, congrats!

    You play SC4?

    Too bad the tournament was on 360 or I would've played. Most of the "better" players of SC4 don't play online because of lag and play on PS3 because that's the console of choice for both Nationals and Evo2k9.

    I own a copy of the game for both consoles. If you google my alias you will see my name for various fighting games.

    I went to evo in '06 and will probably be going again this year.

    Community forums based on the game you play. Kinda like this site but for specific games.

    He shook my hand at NJ regionals and said "Good Sh**" to me for winning the laptop. So I highly doubt it.

    Congrats.

    I'd like to mention that for "V. Large Pics" these are tiny.

    just my $.02

    if anyone wants HiRes shots of the m15x, tell me which part, angle, etc, any kinda description, and I'll get it.
