Dell Alienware M17x Gaming Laptop
You may be wondering, isn’t the M17x an old laptop? Why is it being reviewed now? I’m glad you asked. Alienware has always been a brand that’s about being on top of the technology spectrum, and with a whole host of new technologies being launched over the past year; they’ve decided to refurbish their highly successful laptop line with some improvements on the hardware.
Customizability is the of the game for Alienware’s series of laptops, and the new M17x is no different. Starting with the hardware, customers are able to choose between a series of Intel Core i7 processors ranging from the 1.6GHz chip to the 2.13GHz one, depending on your budget. The old M17x ran on Intel’s older Core2Extreme processors, and it’s a welcome change by the Alienware to see that they’re up to industry standards where raw power is concerned. The new M17x also does away with dated nVidia Geforce GTX280 graphics card, and is replaced by Ati’s new Radeon HD5870 cards. Much like the SLI option for the GTX280 card, you can also opt to CrossFire two of the HD5870s at the order page.
But the customizing options don’t just end there. All Alienware laptops are very colorful laptops, and this is made possible by their unique backlighting system that allows users to change the colors of these lights, and more. In other words, as long as it lights up, you can change it via the AlienwareFX software, which affords you different customization options, which include changing the colors of the LED lights, battery options, and also profiles for different types of usage.
Needless to say, the M17x plays ANY GAME you can throw at it nearly flawlessly at the highest settings, but at the cost of a near non-existent battery life of two hours. If you’re asking if the laptop can play Crysis, we’re telling you that it definitely can, and more. The Core i7 processor and ATI’s HD5870 card combination definitely pushes the limits of mobile desktop computing to its limits, regardless if you’re gaming, coding or doing some heave duty animation and video editing work.
If you can stomach the asking price for this awesome piece of technology, the M17x should definitely be on top of your must get list. It may be a large laptop, but it definitely packs more power than most conventional laptops and even some desktop computers, at the fraction of the space taken.
