Hello forum.
Long time no speak :)
I've been using my M17x R3 for just over a year now and after seeing many users continually upgrade and even overclock the likes of the new Gtx 880m in their Alienware 17's I'm beginning to wonder if my system is considered "old hat" nowadays.
I'm running a M17x R3
1080p Screen
i7 2860Qm
8GB Ram
250 GB hard drive
Intel 1500 wifi card
HD6990m Graphics Card
The thing is I still feel the system is perfectly adequate for my needs with many of my games still running on Maximum settings with very few exceptions (And even in those cases the games still look amazing).
Should I plan on upgrading the graphics card in the next few months or should I just use the system right up until the end of the warranty (2 years Approximately) and just get whatever fancy new system replacement is available then?
