m17x r2 . 16gig ram!.........plus m15x 7970!!!
ok its been comfirmed the m17x r2 will take 16 gig ram....when m17x r2 came out the ram sticks where 4gigs max, so was listed as 8 gigs max for the r2. eg. 4 gigs in each of the 2 slots.......also comfirmed is m15x will take the 7970 card.....and possible the m17x r2 may also take the 7970 in crossfire.....but this is not confirmed yet....
Good to know, especially about the M15x and the 7970! But few people would ever need 16GB of RAM in a gaming PC....

People with 6990m gpus in their m15x laptops are upgrading to 7970m gpus because they offer more power, but more importantly they run cooler.Now you can also have 16gb of ram in an m15x, but that's really an overkill.
hmm 4 to 8 gig ram would be enough for gaming :)
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
