Seriously? Yes, there are many benefits. Quit asking stupid questions.
More powerful might be one thing... -

my m14 has actually got a better processor and faster ram :/ are the graphics cards changable on the m18?
-
Yes the GPU are changable. The only reason I wouldn't swap is if you move your M14x around everyday. The M18x is a lot of weight to carry around.

The 18xr2 comes with Ivy Bridge, and you can put faster RAM in it. -

m18x owns m14x in everything , but m14x beats m18x in portable , end of the story.
The best way is owning both , lol. -
In general like everyone else said the M18X would be better: Larger screen (larger resolution), better GPU especially with crossfire/sli. Though if you do need to move the laptop or use it off battery the 14 would be better.
M14x for M18x
