That's good to hear! Wasn't positive of what I was looking at but, beginning to get an understanding of all the terms numbers. I'll take a look at the rest of the programs. Once again, thanks. Patriots are up 17-6 late in the 2nd quarter! This game is to go to the Championship! Oh hey, should I...

Thanks man for your prompt response during the weekend. Yeah I'd be watching me some Rugby if those were my 2 choices too. Although, Rugby isn't hugely popular here, it's still more popular than Soccer. I'm from the Boston area so, we're huge Patriots fans and have that tough, blue-collar...

Hey Multipack, again thanks for your help. The read and write scores are still the same and seem to be low. I've checked the power settings and I have them set to high performance so, that doesn't seem to be the issue. I can't find anything about XMP settings anywhere and am not aware if the RAM...

Yup, the SSD is running smoothly and the HDD has been formatted and assigned a new letter. So, it seems that everything that should've been done has been done. I was also wondering about the XMP for the RAM...It seems it's not running to it's fullest potential when I did a Benchmark test? 1st...

Hey Man, I've Already received the Crucial 525gb M.2 SSD and 8gb Ram. I installed the OS onto the SSD and everything turned out ok after a few hiccups. It's booting from the SSD now and seems to be working really well and super quick as you could imagine. Just one thing though...do I have to set...

Hey Multipack, How's it going? I'm adding the new Crucial SSD to the Dell today and wanted to know if there is anything I should know before going forward with the process? ...Set-up and Bios transfer etc.

Hey Multipack, Thanks again for your help and expertise. I picked up my Dell at the Microsoft Store for that amazing price. I got it home and set it up with all its updates and it's working beautifully. I'll be picking up the extra SSD as you suggested soon and I should be all set for a while...

So much research I really didn't know which way to go. I decided upon the Dell instead of the Asus. The only reason why I was thinking about the Asus was because of 3.1, the pcie SSD and the CD drive, other than that the Dell had more CPU and GPU.

Do you know what brand of ssd I should buy...Samsung or Crucial? Any help knowing before I but would be great, thanks.

Yes and no, 8gb ssd and 1tb hhd. Sorry about that. Thanks, I thought it was a steal. Going to pick one up today. I upgrade the 8gb with a bigger ssd. Again, thank you so much.

Ok, thank you for clarifying that up for me. This will be my first laptop purchase and wanted to make sure I was getting my money's worth. Do you think I've made a good choice for $750 or do you think I can do better?

Thank you for your responses. The Asus can use Pcie SSD and the Dell can only use the standard SSD. Does this matter when deciding or do they both have their benefits?

Asus Vivobook Pro, N552NX-US51T i5-6300hq @ 256gb m.2 ssd/1tb hdd, 8gb ddr4, 2.3-3.2 ghz, gtx950m with a 3.1port and optical drive or... Dell 15, 7559-5013GRY i7-6700hq @ 8gb data ssd/1tb hdd 8gb ddr3, 2.6-3.5 ghz, gtx960m without 3.1 port and no optical drive? Both are 4k touchscreen with...
