    I am trying to get the 4k Alienware to replace a 1080p MSI GT80. What type of performance am I looking to get when playing games like witcher 3 at 4k resolution?

    I will be using the highest specced AW15 and I would also like to know how I would perform if I used the graphics amplifier with a GT980.

    I'd recommend you to ask in the Owner's lounge inside the sub-forum that fatboyslimerr posted.
