    Hello all,

    So I have a few different rigs right now, main laptop being a Sager NP9170 but I was going to grab an alienware m11x r3 from someone for a decent price for a more portable laptop. My confusion though is the specs that I was listed for this laptop. He says it is an m11x R3 with an i7-4700MQ and an GT 750M. After some research I was unable to find the m11x r3 to be customizable with these options. Am I doing something wrong here? Was there an option to add these components? I was under the impression that the GT 750 came out ~ April 2013 and the production of the m11x was halted shortly after. Did they maybe have a last model sellout with different components? Thanks for your help everyone!

    there is no such thing as an m11x r3 with those specs. from what i remember the r3 comes with a GT540 and a i7 processor. stay away.

    It could be a typo on the name or a total scam :p

    Sounds more like a new Alienware 14 with those specs!
