Alienware: M17 vs M17x

Hey guys I was wondering what you all think is better overall. The Alienware m17 which is ati based, can be configured with quad core, and crossfireX, or the m17x which is nvidia based and can come with 9800GT's. The m17x is a bit more expensive but I have heard if performs better, though I have heard the m17 is basically an OCZ whitebook, which is a good thing I think. What do you all think?

yea no kidding the m17x has more cost as compared to m17 but it has nvidias which is considered as better gpu's compared to the ati's because of the heating issues, but the m17 has quad core, which increases the performance a lot, but as being a matter of money, the m17 wins the race, but ya sager npn262 is my personal favourite notebook, it is one of a kind i have ever seen, though if you are a gamer freak, you wil have to spend about 6 grants on the machine, but accirding to me its worth it
