    I have an Area 51 M17x that still plays the newest games perfectly. Before this class picked up I was playing the new Star Wars and Tier 1 maxed out with out any issues, so I wasnt planning on getting a new Machine until next yearish. BUT, ive heard grumblings that the new M17x r3 is the beginning of no dual card machines. Is this true? If so I might have to get a M17xr2 cross fire while they are available. What do you guys know/think?

    There will always be another dual card machine.

    Whether its called a M17x or a M18x is irrelevant. If it says dual we will buy it.
