basic specs will feed your need sufficiently, and plus you can always upgrade your CPU in future.
the basic specs of M17x is good indeed, its already less almost 2k from its original price actually.
the display is superb 1920x1200; the processor is kinda weak for gaming laptop but nobody cares since gaming utilized GPU>CPU. (unless certain games of course)

and for M15x, you can't upgrade much if you 7k is the max of your budget. if you can reach 920XM, then i recon you to go for M15x smile.gif

i think i wont spend more than 7k..
i dont have the "resources" for more than that.. tongue.gif
hahahaha..
so i shld go for the m17x instead of the m15x?

n btw,the rm6999 m17x uses this screen: 17.0" Beyond HD 900p WXGA + (1440x900) CCFL Display with TrueLife
but the more expensive one is :17.0" WUXGA 1920 x 1200 - Beyond HD (1200p) - RGB LED

the cheaper one doesnt use 1920x1200..i'm concerned abt this too..

yes you should smile.gif

but make sure you contact the Sales Assistance before purchasing the item. they will give you discount and maybe free stuff too!  brows.gif

try to contact them using Live Chat on Dell's website.

honestly i already forgot what is the different of LED and LCD. you can just google for the comparison between them.

and about the screen resolution, bigger mean image will be more neat and vise versa. but remember, bigger resolution mean it will strain GPU more smile.gif
*
yeah..i googled it already..
ppl say that LED screens are way better than LCD screens..
pictures are way better n brighter..the screen will be thinner too..
so how?
if i buy the m15x,it will come with a 1920x1200 LED screen..
but for the minimum specs of the m17x,it comes with a 1440x900 LCD screen..
what is ur opinion on this??
shld i still go for the m17x or juz the m15x?

well if you are not extreme gamer, just go for M15x.
cheaper and less performance.

but gaming is the reason why you buy Alienware product, M17x with GTX280M SLi is your first choice smile.gif

huhuh..
