    same clevo chassis different configs i assume. but its annoying they call it the FX 570, the same as the Nvidia chip.....which coincidentally is the same as the 8700GT in some NP5791s........a bit misleading

    Congratulations on your purchase, that's a super high-end configuration. I'm currently typing on an M570RU/Sager NP5791 and it is an amazing machine!
