    Hey all,

    I've noticed a lot of sales for the XPS 17 on the dell website. and theres one going on right now for EPP students that lasts for 44 hours. I was wondering if it was worth the upgrade to purchase this laptop.

    Currently i have a m11x R2 alienware laptop. It has been pretty good i havent had any problems since i use it for school and portable gaming. However, i'm under the impression the XPS17 can play games better. (and has a better screen)

    So should i pick up the xps17 or should i wait and buy a m17x in the future?

    most of those sales are about 5% off, you discount codes you can normally get around 10% and 7% cashback with quidco, unless its a special they are doing.

    Dell has that thing going on until the 15th where they have like upwards of £400 off an XPS 17, do they do this quite often or is this a first/one time thing?
