    Hi all

    I was planning on getting XPS 17 but I am having doubts.

    I just don't understand one thing...

    look at this chart of Game performance:
    Computer Games on Laptop Graphic Cards - Notebookcheck.net Tech

    you will see that GT 435 is better than GT 330M BUT

    when you see this review:

    Dell XPS 17 (L701X) review - Audio, Performance, Battery Life and Verdict - Laptop reviews - TrustedReviews

    Sudeenly Samsung R780 which has GT 330M (according to this :
    http://www.trustedreviews.com/laptop...n-Laptop/p3)IS better than XPS 17 ...

    how ???????????????

    because of this I am thinking of getting XPS 15 with FHD screen and GT 420, side question: anyone one knows when dell will have Christmas discount ?

    Aslo I am wondering after reading Gloomy post, if XPS normal screen is bad will the FHD be bad also (compared to other FHDs) ? a good screen is a must for me.

    I read that they use RGB LED FHD screen, I also heard before that dell standard screens are bad and u always want to upgrade... any feedback ?

    Thanks
