    Canada had a $500 off sale a couple weeks on the M17x. The only caveat was that you had to buy 6 gigs of ram, so really just $300 off for most people...

    I am actualy living in china 20 minutes away from Hong Kong and in eather china or Hong Kong Alienware are 20 percent higher and the worst is that they force you to buy insurance and the must expensive configurations.

    Dell china anouces
    M17x R2 iin china is 35k yuuans = 3500 euros with no RGB

    Dell Hong Kong
    M17x R2 over 3500 usa with RGB and a quad 70

    My only choice is Dell china R1 M17x q9000 dobel gtx 280 for 2k euros 7 days deliver

    grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!!!!!!!

    Or importing an R2 RGB from usa, free of tax to HK but have to ad transportation plus comitins around 500 so at the end if luky is litel over 3k usa and the huge waiting maybe over 7 weeks, if it ever gets here not easy as desition lol

    So when i see you can buy a nice system for litel over 2k in usa it drives me crazy !!!!

    That is not bad at all.

    n short for $2k: It's m17x w/ i7 720 CPU, 4870 single graphics, 1200p RGB LED screen, 250GB HD, 6GB DDR3 at 1066MH
    Good way to go while waiting for the future Atis 5870, if they ever come then just, sale your single 4870 and buy the new kit of 5870s :p

    I wander how is to live with a single 4870 ?

    300 for another 4870 isn't all that bad, I mean it's going for sale on these boards for at last 475/500.
