Take not of this please. Im not sure if this is for the M11x only or all the Alienware Family.

Jerry Jackson From NBR:

I'm sorry it took a few days to get a final answer from Alienware, but it the question had to go around to the Dell Support and Legal teams before they could give me a final answer to share with the forum users here.

Here is the official word from Alienware/Dell:


"A customer will not void his warranty for utilizing the CPU overclock setting in the BIOS of the M11x. If the customer calls in for support and has overclocked the CPU bus using the BIOS setting, support will ask the customer to return the clock speed to factory setting to eliminate any stability issues possibly caused by overclocking for the duration of troubleshooting.

Only in the case where a customer has utilized third party hardware to push the hardware beyond design specifications will a customer be in danger of voiding their warranty."

Added on February 24, 2010, 11:05 amLeft the Alienware running to download 3DMark06 overnight, and ran it just now. Score? 6283, with 3DMark06 detecting the processor running at 1.73GHz. Awesome!

Also installed FRAPS and installed all the games purchase yesterday, I'll have screenshots ready later. In short, they are all playable at High settings, with FPS hovering around 25-27fps at 1366 x 768. Mass Effect 2 ran MAXXED OUT at 45-60fps, Bioshock 2 ran MAXXED OUT at 25-32fps, Modern Warfare 2 at 45-50fps, L4D2 ran MAXXED OUT at 47-55fps. These are set to run at native resolution of 1366x768.

Screenshots later to come. I'm contemplating whether to go to work or not. Feel a fever coming.

Wow.. 6768 is super high resolution

Haha,6768... m11x make a person fever..omg!lolz

Sorry. How did the extra 6 got in there. Corrected.

Damn! Sore throat and warm forehead. How?

Stop starring at the Alienware M11x would be a remedy? As this smoking hot babe is burning you alive ...

wow, those fps on games.. this m11x is really good..

@string, you ran the 3DMark06 with overclocking the processor to 1.73 GHZ right?

Yes I did. Running at 1.73GHz as detected by 3dMark06.

I think the reason whose fpses are that way is because we have not traversed into the higher resolution territory. Step into 1680 x 1050, and watch those fpses drop.

^wow, brother string become famous already
unboxing with one hand only..

I should probably do the FRAPS tests on those games later with a video benchmarking, and upload to Youtube.

One-hand unboxing is only possible when the item unboxed is light. The M11X qualifies for this. The edge-to-edge keyboard also reminds me of the Apple Powerbook, another powerhouse of its time.

Anyway, it was a great unboxing video ...

Thank you. I was trying so hard not to get my face captured in that video, thanks to the reflective screen. I was wearing my Alienware shirt though.
