The model available at Staples is named Dell XPS 14z-2308ELS and it features some really nice tech. specifications for the price. However when you look at the specifications you will note the absence of any discrete graphics, that’s because for the XPS 14z you have to configure discrete graphics from the Dell.com website –Dell currently offers the NVIDIA GeForce GT520M 1GB GPU, a lower-end discrete GPU.
