XG15- NO backlit keyboard, GPU soldered to motherboard (765m gtx) 2 external monitors, 2.0 sound system.

X15s - Multicolor backlit keyboard, MXM3 GPU capable motherboard (Up to 780m gtx) removable modules, 2 MSATA bays and up to 3 external monitors. 2.1 sound system.

Hope this helps to give you a basic understanding of the differences, there a quite a few more small differences, but the most major one to most users is the GPU support.

Do take advantage of the free maintenance and pasting services we're offering. Their there because we feel this is a very important aspect for any high performance system. Just drop by anytime during opening hours.

haha sure ;)
can provide color calibration also?:D

Motherboards are different in featureset. Quality for both is top notch.

For X15s, the cards are modular MXM3, for new cards they may fit the socket, but compatibility is only known once new cards are released.

You can choose your storage solution. AS for the SSD, you can request for 840 pro if you want.

Yes you can provide your own OS and Drive

Does Aftershock have any trade-in programs? I have had a Lenovo Ideapad Y460 for about 3 to 3.5 years, and I am hoping to replace it with one of your 15" models.

We're in the midst of working this out :)

I think it will be great if one is able to do trade in their old laptops. But also means more work on your end bro.

More work is fine as long as we can offer a service of greater value. We've got several big announcements in the 2 weeks ahead :) New services, New form factors and more.

It will be great if the 780 can fit in a 13" size clevo... not sure if the temps can be good.
