btw how do u check if your alienware is on R1 or R2 mobo? lol...

I just got the Alienware Orion bag...omg it is humongous..no wonder it can carry 2 17" laptops...crazy man...woohoo...super nice man...the bag

R1 = C2D C2Q proc
R2 = I7 / I5 proc

I see. coz Im thinking of upgrade my laptop. I dont want a downgrade performance.

currently mb or m11x

What laptop u having now and spec pls..
Upgrade a laptop is not that cheap.. will burn ur wallet btw..
I would go for a new laptop for me..

Just finish operation, Everything is fit into m15x even the heat sink, is totally same, i opened GPUz its only shows VGA adaptor, i try my different method, but still cannot be use. Vry dissapointed

Your Are wrong, i tried to put in GTX280M, but the mobo dont wan let me to install the driver....
Heatsink and Socket everything is fit into M15x

M11x is made by plastic doesnt same as M15x(Magnesium), M17x(Aluminium).
M11x is just a marketing power, it is an 'ALIENWARE" which every one is afford to buy. Dell is just trying to gain more money......

c2d 2.0ghz t5550 (merom)

m15x a bit expensive, unless my bro can topup me a lot

M11x is much more towards the battery life and portability..

It has a superb GPU in such a small case

having same MXM socket doesn't directly mean you can use any type of GPU for that.

there are several other factors that influence the compatibility of one hardware to another. don't ask me what are the factors, i don't even know. what i know is that fact is already proven true



told you so

For those encountering the problem with shutdown ( restart shortly after it shuts down ) on M15x, the solution is to install
196.86 driver downloaded from laptopvideo2go.com and then make sure you run a clean uninstall of the previous driver ( using registry cleaner CCleaner and driver cleaner Driver Sweeper ),
this should solve the problem completely, do not install version 195.xx as they do not work.

Playing METRO 2033 in my room without aircon or fan on and just a notebook cooler. My M15x just registered its hottest temp ever before at 90celcius...

lolz.. 90 celcius.. with that temperature, how was the gaming experience? got any lag experience with ur game?

for a normal laptop GC can stand up to 105'C, so it wont goes lagg....
90 celcius is vry normal d, last time my G51 hit 103'C gaming performance still vry vry good

hehehe G51Vx known for the famouse heat issue.. lol too hot i wonder..

Well normally when I game intensely, max is 85celcius
But my room was especially warm cos I was too lazy to get up from my beanbag to on the air con so even I was perspiring.... So the hot air combined with the gaming produced a new record for heat generated. Gaming was still same

Gameplay of Prototype and Borderland
Prototype
Setting: 1280 x 720,vsync on, medium setting.


The frame rate is constant 20-30, what weird is on this game even the fps is as low as 15 it still very smooth for me. Ans i cant higher the resolution for this, no idea why it only stay 1280X720

Borderlands
Setting: 1366x766. All high setting with AA off.vsync On



Extremely smooth, stay between 50-60fps with vsync on. Never see it drop below 40fps. Looking foward to finish this game.
