Question about 15" processor upgrades

[BlueXIII]

Hi friends,

I have a question about the newest rMBP 15" upgrades, particularly the processor. I know the higher end model comes with a 2.3 ghz CPU and a dGPU. The base 15" has a 2.0 ghz CPU and integrated graphics. If I choose the base model online but upgrade just the processor to the 2.3 ghz version, does that mean I also get the dGPU? Or do I only get the dGPU if I choose the full high end model (w/ upgraded ram and ssd space)?

I don't believe you get the dGPU if you upgrade the CPU.

You only get the dGPU on the full high end model. Why not check out the refurb section if you're working on a budget? They have the same warranty as a new MBP.
