Liftoff in UK: http://www.dell.com/en-uk/work/shop...30/spd/precision-17-7730-laptop/xctop7730emea

 

long wait is over

Very strange Video options - it's either Intel HD GFX or the next step up is P3200 at plus £400. what happend with M1200 which was a good option for someone who doesn't need fast GFX?
Does any one know what I would get with 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD Class 40 + £432.25 ?
Would it be better to get cheapest ssd and then buy 960 Pro (which I think before would be undre Class 50 - that is not yet available for 7730)?

 

I would buy with an HDD and get m.2 aftermarket. 970 EVO looks nice

 

I'm curious about the new brush Onyx colour option for the 5530 but can't seem to find any photos on the web.

 

The 7730 page is not correctly configured yet I guess.... I cannot select the UHD monitor option.

17.3" UltraSharp UHD IGZO 3840x2160 AG NT, No WWAN, Cam/Mic, w/Prem Panel Guar 100% color gamut

 

@Dell-Mano_G : I am about to pull the trigger on a 7730 with only an Intel GPU and an i9. Could I use the 180w power adapter without getting CPU throttling?

Thank you
Sven

 

I managed to get UHD in. I think it depends when you select it. I've selected the panel, but now can't change SSD back to HHD
anyway I think this is a great build for engineer who doesn't play games

did I miss anything?

Or can I same money without giving up performance?

 

Just saw in the manual, that using 2,5" drive reduces the battery to 4 cell - so I will have to replace all my SSDs with m.2 - oh my...

 

As you selected the 6 cell battery you cannot go for the 2.5" HDD.

To save money, you could go for a smaller m.2 and 2x8 GB RAM and get an 970 EVO 1 or 2 TB + 2x 8GB after market.

 

Still cannot get it selected.... following exactly your configuration

Will give it a couple of hours more and try again.
