    Hi,

    I am planning to order Dell XPS 14 with:

    Processor:
    - Intel® Core™ i7-740QM Processor(1.73GHz,4Core/8Threads,turbo boost up to 2.93Ghz,6M cache)

    - 8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM (2 x 4G) (operates at 1066MHZ for Core i5 processors)

    - 2GB NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 425


    My questions is this:
    1. How compatible are the above 3 hardwares when put together?
    2. How is the performance of the laptop with these 3
    3. What are the drawbacks of this laptop overall.

    Please help , as I am planning to order in a couple of days time.

    Thanks.
