NVIDIA to Launch GeForce GTX 690 Before May 5 | techPowerUp

I think I found it.

I don't think so why would there be Alienware logos on the picture then?

I don`t believe it until I see it. Sweclockers are always using the "sources known to us" card when they write articles.

I haven't seen it on a road map. Maybe someday. I'd guess you'd have to think about development costs and attach rates before you did something like that. My guess is the attach rate would be in the low single digits, thus making it cost prohibitive to the customer. The laws of supply and demand are irrefutable.

I assume you are talking about a watercooled notebook now right? I can understand that the development work and cost would be immense but Asetek have already made a working prototype. They already did most of the work I suggest you guys take a look at that and maybe implement it in the next M17x and M18x? I don`t know if the cost would attract enough customers to make a profit though. I reckon these things won`t be cheap.
But one last question: Is the "its coming" picture notebook related?

i really think the m11x replacement will be a really nice ultrabook!! since they are takin over a specific group of marketing if that makes sense?

I ordered a M14x R2 this morning and found this forum this afternoon (which btw is full of great information). As you can see, I'm new here so my ability to "read between the lines" may be limited. Did I pull the trigger on this purchase a few days to soon or could I be in for a nice surprise in a few days?

Maybe they're finally going to refresh the area-51 ALX with a GTX 690 ? But that's for another thread
So better wait and see than to dream and be disappointed.

That is certainly a possibility
