yeap. M11x definitely can't handle CPU-intensive games. nevertheless, it's still a good performer when comes to most of the titles.

hey teikwing, 1 question here..
M11x in battery mode with integrate graphic can last how long yea?
from notebookcheck said that can last for 6 hours? izit true?

I can manage about 3 hours only with WiFi and Bluetooth enabled. 6 hours likely you go bare minimum with everything. No WiFi, minimum screen brightness, no bluetooth, etc.

err i have not try out the battery yet as i hardly travel nowadays but like what hye mentioned, 6 hours+ achievable only if screen dimmed to minimum, non-OC CPU and probably minimal WiFi usage.

hmm...usually how long it takes for them to confirm ur order?

It took me about 4 days. Yeah, fail.

wow no wonder...

it depends. in my case, made my payment on 3rd, confirmed on 5th and order was only confirmed on 11th. however, this only applies to the first batch order of M11x.

for my last purchase of a Vostro, confirmation of payment took 24 hours and order is build/confirmed within 3 days. do note that credit card payment took the least time to confirm (within 1 day) while cheque and bank transfer might take up to 3 days.

It's a good laptop.

It just worries me that it cant really take CPU intensive games.

We may see the Acer TimelineX soon? Corei5/Corei7 with ATi HD5650 It's 13.3" and 14" would be like the most powerful sub 15" gaming notebook

LoL poisoning Cheesenium

*shudder* Acer.....
I am so glad I'm moving away from my Acer and going onto an Alienware imo.
Acer was HORRIBLE.

i can play warhammmer 4000 II on my mx11
native resolution ...at high setting ,no AA..ok lo.
no need to worry nowadays game lah...most of the developers wanted to make their game to console
so if they wanted to port to pc..the requirement also not high ...
anything that played on xbox360 or ps3,if ported to pc sure can played one..

question:
the cd that is included in the box of the alienware... wat are those cd's for anyway...?

you have to use it when you reformat you lappy

it contain the drives for your system.

funny how they gave you a cd for a lappy without a cd drive...lol

yaya thats y im wondering wat r those disc for....
thx for letting me know....

DVD -> copy to pendrive -> bot via USB / install software from that.

still, better than nothing rite?

ext DVD drive are not that expensive. I have 2 since I also have 2 Eee PCs before I bought my Alien.

how much is the cheapest ext dvd drive?

around 150 i think.
