    Dell XPS 15 vs Desktop

    Looking into the Dell XPS 15 (i7-6700HQ 16GB 512GB SSD UHD touch 4K GTX960M) for video editing (1080p and some 4k footage using Adobe Premiere), which I can get it for about $1400. My questions is, If I were to build a $1400 desktop, how much better of a performance would I get compared to the XPS?

Other than that the specs seem pretty decent and right now its priced comparably between the bottom level...

    Dell XPS in Europe: please give us more customization options!

    The new Dell XPS 15 and 13 laptops look amazing. HOWEVER, in Europe the customization options are quite limited, meaning that some people are forced into either waiting or buying a setup that they don't need/want. For example, I would love to buy the XPS 15 with FHD (non-touchscreen), the...
