ah-ha. u asked the correct person. i used deathadder, imperator and mamba all 3 mouse before.
deathadder and mamba size equally the same, but deathadder has a hump at the right side, which to me is better and more comfortable. imperator is smaller, fits smalller hands. but i find it not so comfortable. the imperator rubber coating is different from mamba and deathadder as well. it is slightly more licin and shiny compared to deathadder. hold on i go search for the comparison picture then show u here.Added on April 2, 2010, 2:14 amthere you go http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1210611/+2073 hehe.. i was the first one in malaysia to get imperator xD coz i order directly from razer usa.

if ur hands smaller, get imperator.. but u better read my review first. cuz there are some of the things about imperator than distinguish it from other razer mice. like firmer clicks and adjustable side buttons.
i don recommend orochi becoz its really erally really small. i tried before. not comfortable for long hours of gaming. not only that, orochi doesnt work like a gaming mouse when its on bluetooth mode. its just an ordinary mouse when on bluetooth, which is 125hz only. orochi is only for portability and more to temporary gaming usage. well, thats my personal opinion i suggest u to get imperator or tactx xD however, i never tried tactx before.. hehe.. or u wanna consider bout roccat mouse? if u wan wireless, wait till pc fair or may liddat, will come out roccat pyra. wireless and 1000hz, gaming grade mouse. Added on April 2, 2010, 2:28 amsry add something. u will need at least 1 week to get use to mouse like DA. but after that, it offers extreme comfort for long hour gaming. guarantee your hands wont feel pain or anything. DA really fits your right hand nicely. for me, first week i really tak tahan use DA. i tot it was too big and bulky. so hard to get use to it. but after that 1 week of getting use to it. everythin performed miraculously. outperformed what i expected This post has been edited by Michaelbyz23: Apr 2 2010, 02:28 AM |

But I might be wrong.... @Iksing: The speakers actually cost me around RM800 when I got them in mid 2008. Its has very clear and crisp sound emphasizing on sound clarity hence its good for music.  |

Here's another problem I have: refresh rate.
It's locked at 59Hz, so when V-Sync is on, it locks the fps to that. That's a big problem with Guitar Hero 3 and Guitar Hero Aerosmith, that are locked to the screen's refresh rate. With games like Guitar Hero, the timing easily goes a little off when the fps is lower. The game was built to run at 60fps. When I try to set the screen to 60Hz, it reverts back to 59Hz instantly. How do I lock it to 60Hz? |

V-sync is a setting where you will set the framerate of the game to fixed to your monitor refresh rate - which is 60Hz.

QUOTE(Mr.Docter @ Apr 3 2010, 12:21 AM) sometimes it cannot be locked to 60Hz but just 59Hz. 1Hz is extremely small amount of duration - i never thought it can disturb any gaming experience. Guitar Hero games don't let you disable V-Sync. The game goes haywire if the framerate is above 60, timing starts screwing around, etc.try to disable your V-sync. it definitely will jump more than 60Hz. I just tried Guitar Hero Aerosmith and it lags so much more than GH3. You'd think Aspyr would have learned their lesson the first time... |

yeap. i tested on many surface edi.. =.= REALLY weird...
my table no prob. my fren's table yes. but their laptop no problem , balance. tested on several tables in the library of my school. some yes some no. i was like................. if the guy come over, i test on my fren's table, but then he ask me test again own my table. then he see balance. how to argue? =.= i think the best for me is to rpelace the rubber feet my own. go get one set of 4 piece rubber and stick at the side of the original tiny feet. i hope it will help.. if it doesnt, means the whole body is unbalance. |

For those who did not see the main page of LYN

I thought Michael's unbalancing act is because he dropped his M11X last time? I remember that happened and everybody groaned for his carelessness.

nope, i don think its because i dropped it. i drop it inside a laptop bag. i tried to convince myself its because of the drop. but now i realized its not. its becauce of mayb the rubber feet or unbalance casing
Added on April 3, 2010, 12:41 pmi nvr noticed anythin last ttime is because i use it on my table. like i said, no problem when i use on my own table. i notice it few weeks ago once i started bringin it out. in the library and class table. don tell me these tables are unbalance cuz my frens' laptop are ok with the table, not mine. Added on April 3, 2010, 12:52 pmnvm la.. forget bout those things. since i got complete cover,and this is their problem i supposed, i think they will change the btm cover. gonna call them on monday. the phone is 1800881306 rite? they will come the next day?

You can extend the warranty by calling them. The difference is that the price you'll have to pay for the extension will be more expensive as compared to you extending it when u were ordering the lappy.....QUOTE(kappa89 @ Apr 3 2010, 11:50 AM) since pc fair is coming.. should i wait to buy alienware there or just buy it now.. is there any chance that pc fair will have some offer ?

so you're gonna push up the selling price now?
anyway, just realize this while watching some of the HD trailers on apple.com/trailers, the playback did experience some lag and stutter, anyone else with the same issue? never have such issues even with my old Inspiron on Core Duo 1.66 with Intel GMA950. |

QUOTE(deathbringer @ Apr 4 2010, 12:29 AM) is anyone here using the new official nvidia notebook drivers 197.16 for the GT335m? quoted from NBR:QUOTE yup 197.16 drivers aren't any good for me. They're just like the 196.86 modded. If you install over your current drivers it will switch fine. Not until you reboot then they fail. I'm assuming batboy didn't reboot. Back to original drivers. Unless you disable switchable graphics and go purely discrete you can't really use these drivers yet... thinking about trying discrete gfx only with these. The 196.86 had a sleep issue and battery drain so I uninstalled it. I'm on discrete mode only now and installing the 197.16. I'll see if it can sleep/wake properly as well as no battery drain. Don't mind running discrete 24/7 if the drivers are any good. This post has been edited by teikwing: Apr 4 2010, 12:37 AM |

does anyone get a small circle on the top left corner of the screen in discrete mode? i could actually expand that circle into a window (with nothing but blackness in it). it only happens when i'm in discrete graphics mode. however, when i switch to integrated and back to discrete, it disappears.
any idea? |

For those who are playing modern warfare 2. Do not update to the latest nvidia driver. It will lower your fps BIG TIME. i already revert back to the previous driver.

i checked the speed step thinggy.. its basically making ur computer to constantly stress the processor.
pros: constantly high performance, mayb 1.6mhz? cons: stress the processor, fan will be stressed constantly non stop, heat issues and battery mati fast. guess im not gonna disable it his document is intended only as a guide to resolve various issues with laptops and/or notebooks and Intel SpeedStep® Technology. Ultimately, your laptop/notebook system manufacturer or mobile motherboard manufacturer may have the very latest information to help resolve your issues. What is Enhanced Intel Speedstep® Technology (EIST)? Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology is an advanced means of enabling very high performance while also meeting the power-conservation needs of mobile systems. Conventional Intel SpeedStep Technology switches both voltage and frequency in tandem between high and low levels in response to processor load. Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology builds upon that architecture using design strategies that include the following: * Separation between Voltage and Frequency Changes. By stepping voltage up and down in small increments separately from frequency changes, the processor is able to reduce periods of system unavailability (which occur during frequency change). Thus, the system is able to transition between voltage and frequency states more often, providing improved power/performance balance. * Clock Partitioning and Recovery. The bus clock continues running during state transition, even when the core clock and Phase-Locked Loop are stopped, which allows logic to remain active. The core clock is also able to restart far more quickly under Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology than under previous architectures. Because Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology reduces the latency associated with changing the voltage/frequency pair (referred to as P-state), those transitions can be practically undertaken more often, which enables more-granular demand-based switching and the optimization of the power/performance balance based on demand. This article gives developers an overview of the support for Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology and demand-based switching under Linux. It is also a ready reference for developers interested in new user-level or in-kernel policy based on Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology.

what SpeedStep does is it scales the frequency and power consumed by the processor. basically, it'll underclock the cpu to various speed levels and voltage in order to prolong battery usage. mainly, it'll scale based on the power scheme u choose through the OS. i think workload on the CPU also affects it. it's not new tech. already being used since Intel Centrino days.
correct me if i'm wrong. |

yea its true.
it didn help anywayz. my 3d mark still not reach 6k after disabling the speedup. the mark increased from 5995 (with step up) to 5999 (without step up). a slight increase in 5? forget bout it.. my 3d mark will nvr reach 6k. sighz btw, tactx user TS, the tactx mouse cover is rubber type or just solid plastic? rubber as in those on razer mouse... wif more grip.This post has been edited by Michaelbyz23: Apr 4 2010, 05:28 PM |

oh man.. not again.. same question has been asked more than 100 times edi i think.
if u wanna noe the performance, like i said. do some research and google it.. it will give u clearer answer when u do research. u ask bout performance, some application, can it support? what applications? so general how to answer rite? mayb some of ur applications are alien to us. so i suggest you to google it. just like what i did last time. otherwise, get one unit for uself and u can test out everything u wan. so far, all the applications i have can be supported. even pirated softwares, games, movies and viruses, malwares and etc. does that answer ur question? if not, then u noe why i didn answer ur question. cuz u just blah general things which u expect forumers to read your mind and understand what u wanna ask. if u wan m11x, go get it. if u don wan it, don ask question about it which has been answer 10000times by lyn, and other websites. tq |

OH ya.. one thing that m11x cannot do.
FULL SCAN with kaspersky internet security 2010 + doing other things. will lag and make u tulan. (like duh.. every laptop also cant scan virus and run programs the same time) mayb u still can tahan the lagginess when u open photos and stuffs. but not me. so when i scan i just leave it there to finish. so, is that a heave/heavy application to u? if yes, don get m11x. get asus 17 inch. or m17x @wilson, ur photoshop is ahem or ori one? and how much is ur 3d mark 06? hehe...

hmmm.. u ask here worth it onot, is really not so chun.. cuz i of coz, beign a fan and a user, mati mati pun will also say worth it.
i really think its worth it for some reasons: im a traveler im a student i bring to college everyday i always use my laptop on bed and table consecutively i like small and light laptop but offer power i love alienware l like lightings i love gaming products i love gaming! i love 5.1 i love black i love aluminium surface i love being called alienates .. and etc etc.. btw, i was new to computers when i buy this laptop too. often went to hardware section and other sections to ask for help. then research on it. hehe.. seriously la, if u feel u need super strong power, get m15x and above.. m11x is for ppl like me, enthusiasts of what i mentioned above. |

hmm... i tell u la how much i spent on m11x..
m11x = RM4200 full specs with 3 years international warranty + 24 mccaffe but deleted it edi (din save the activation code, DARN!) + 190 external dvd player + 200 external hardisk 320gb + 300 15.6 inch monitor + 400 mouse + 79 KIS 2010 + 300 sennheiser headset + 59 goliathus + 25 logitech keyboard + 89 belkin bag + rm110 razer moray u calculate all, see how much. and see i should have add some extra cash to get m15x. at first i kinda regret of spending so much, cuz all the things i spent is to "magnify" the m11x. should have just gotten m15x instead. but yea, got use to it and loving it liaw. u have to appreciate it bro nearly reach 6k..

i think i can answer that.
unless u have godlike soldering skillz, it's impossible as the chip is soldered onto the board. the only way to change the CPU is to swap the whole MB. This post has been edited by deathbringer: Apr 5 2010, 12:42 AM |

QUOTE(deathbringer @ Apr 5 2010, 12:41 AM) i think i can answer that. fixed unless u have godlike( like zues god) soldering skillz, it's impossible as the CPU is soldered onto the board. the only way to change the CPU is to swap the whole MB.

Greasemonkey is in Canada. North America AW Allows for CPU and Hardware swaps to keep up with the new tech without voiding warranty. This is shown on their webbie.....

Did he get his down by AW or externally? If externally is at owners own risks, but if by AW they will allow upgrades which they don't allow here... thats my understanding. Lets say I wanna upgrade to a 920XM, I can't get DELL Msia to do it for me, but DELL US allows, is what I understand from their website.... But this will come in handy when I get a M17series AW where there are more options for changing GPUs ....  |

ATi desktop card is better than Nvidia as in Power Consumption and Raw Performance based on their latest GTX480 which is power hungry and expensive!....
Nvidia for notebooks seems better bcuz their driver support for mobile is great ATi is just starting.. |

Hi guys, my m11x BSOD-ed on me twice in a week last week. Wasn't running anything though, just normal surfing and youtube.
I OC-ed it since day 1, any reason or settings that I should check to ensure it doesn't happen again? BTW I installed DoW and graphics was superb. Loving it currently. |

Due to my lack of deposit, the i7-820M model has been sold to someone else.
Now I have to consider waiting for PC fair, or ordering online from Dell. Will there be significant discount during PC fair? |

most probably not.
maybe can get more free gifts, or can get certain pre-configured models on the spot. |

For m11x i dont think so for this moment(if u r thinking of Core i7), due to they haven really come out with the ES of the intel Core i7 UL series(Low voltage), For other series like SP9xxx, SL9xxx, what dell concern is not the heat, they are concerning about thier market(below USD999), so they cant put in that proc, if they do so, for 1 m11x will cost RM4-5k, which is almost similar to M15x.

M11x is actually a ULV Gaming notebook
Before M11x I was so amazed with what Asus have on their ULXXVt series Same CPU SU7300 OCable to 1.73GHz but with Nvidia G210M.. Which was quite "okay" but then M11x comes in and pawns most of the 14" below lappies with its Nvidia GeForce GT335M 1 GB GDDR3 GPU.. M11x is still much "awesome" because of its Alienware thingy.. LoL.. The AlienFX is the main point here I think and its design |

i noe. thats why i get m11x also. for me, i wan a small laptop. not 15 inch or monstrous size ones. so i din get m15x.
i don mind the battery life also as i usually use on ac adapter. thats y i wanna try to upgrade the cpu to better clock cpu. not purposely wanna go against alienware. its just my personal preference. like i said, i don mind spending 1.5k for a new processor.. i wan my laptop to stand out among the others like when u guys buy m15x or m17x, u guys will normally go for the highest specs rite? cheers~ hehehe.. thats my personal preference only ar.. |

I believe the one that you saw set 4xAA and 16xAF then everything low and also shadow quality medium. Maybe if the user shut it off it can be better. |

Tested games with m11x that can work with full high setting so far:
TES Oblivion. Tweaked with a few performance enhancing mods though. The Sims 3. Its a bit lag if play with high settings in a big town though. Smaller towns works like a charm. Freedom Force vs The Third Reich. Very smooth, very good. Heroes of Might & Magic 5 (with expansions). Pretty good as well. Dragon Age Origins. Work with high setting, but a bit lag when in area with many characters. Medium setting works best. Black & White 2. Great even with all high. |

sorry im noob.. hehe.... i downloaded it edy but not yet try.. hehe this is from my SA from dell, for those who interested in upgrading their m11x cpu. Hi Michael Boon, For processor upgrade you can try to contact Dell spare part dept at 1800-394-7486 for Singapore & 1800-88-0301 for Malaysia. Many thanks. For upgrading outside confirm will void the warranty. Thanks. Jacob Lee Dell Home Sales. This post has been edited by Michaelbyz23: Apr 9 2010, 12:03 AM |

QUOTE Dear *******, Thank you for your reply. I do understand your concern regarding the processor upgrade. Please be advised that you are only able to perform an upgrade on your processor and graphic card before the point of purchase. After the point of purchase, we will not be able to upgrade these components as it will impact the functionality of the current components in the system. This is because before the point of purchase, we can customize the system according with all the components compare to after purchase where we are not able to modified it since can cause compaibility issue. As per your request regarding the price of 8GB of RAM (2 x 4GB 1066MHZ,512X64,8,200 ), kindly be informed that I have submit a request to the quotation department regarding the RAM upgrade. They will contact you soon about the price and procedure. I hope this clarify your concern. Do not hesitate to email me if you require additional assistance to resolve your issue. Your reference number for this case is 4692***. Hope you have a wonderful day! Thank you & best regards Ms Thasnim Abdul Gafoor Dell Services - Technical Support SA Online Team official reply regarding upgrading after purchase. |

QUOTE(Mr.Docter @ Apr 9 2010, 01:21 AM) you cannot upgrade your CPU, MOBO and GPU. not by yourself or even by Dell Technician Mr. Docter, u are wrong......well yes someone claimed changing those hardwares will not void the warranty, but generally and officially - it will void your warranty. i am tired emphasizing this point, really. i ask FindingScreemo to post this on the front page of V2 but no action. maybe he is forgotten anyway, i would like to see how someone that upgrading his own expensive laptop like this react once knowing his warranty is voided after done upgrading TS, maybe you could post some FAQ in V3 front page for some question like this. it wont void the warranty, officially "Yes", normally "No" why? let me explain. For Example, i change my proc, suddenly my laptop faulty, cannot power on, or anything, this is a serious problem, most probably dell will ask tech to pick up and send to warehouse. When they found out the problem is not ur proc who lead to the faulty, they will claim and repair for u, if it is lead by proc, then they will no repair for u, because Proc is not under Dell's bar code(is my own proc). The problem i can 100% comfirm, i have few's friend who are working in warranty department and warehouse, i know it cleary. but if u ask those On call Tech Support, they will say void...... u send laptop to the warehouse, dell will pay the company who repair for u, and the parts will send by dell to the warehouse, the company who repair for u doesnt lose anything also.

cannot la bro,
my external using fw800, but when connected nothing is happen, just do that at digital mall, tested almost 5pc of their cable... I think because 1394 no power line, that's why cannot connected to external HD. This post has been edited by SEP910: Apr 9 2010, 09:41 PM |

IMHO, It is not necessary that the price tag for Alienware M11x will increase as the price for the current specs. of M11x may reduce just like Mr. Doctor has said just now. |

My m11x seems to have something that looks like a particle of a dust stuck in the middle of its screen. Its not on the top layer, its on the gap between the front layer of the screen and lcd I think.
It happened just today. Not dead pixel since i can see it's shadow underneath it. Can I somewhat remove it? Will Dell even remove it? Its not much, but its annoying as hell. |

I think one of our forumers here have dealt with that issue before. I think you can call them and they will send someone over to remove it.....

I can confirm the previous external BD-Writer works beautifully with the M11X. the included Cyberlink PowerDVD 8 that comes with the M11X has BD playback capability, and it plays my most recent BD, "2012" perfectly. And it runs only on USB power.
Anyone who wants me to help them get this external BD drive, I'll see when I'm going to Tokyo again. The model is IOData BRP-UP6. |

yo,if u want to talk abt banks infos n datas n all,ur in the wrong thread bro..
yes,we are talking abt home use pc and laptops.. what are the "omg so important infos" are in our laptops anyways.. so dont worry abt those kind of viruses.. most of the viruses that infect our pc are those which slows our system down..but like puto said,it wont effect as much since our laptops (ALIENWARE!) are high end products.. i agreed when puto said anti-viruses only slows down ur computer.. this is because eventho u use anti-virus,ur pc will still get infected anyways.. fyi,viruses are made by anti-virus companies..so that they would have competetive advantage over their competitors..(make virus that no other anti-virus can detect except theirs) so..as conclusion..absolutely no use.. |

The fact of the matter is, if you know what you're putting into your computer, YOU YOURSELF is the antivirus, you are the filter, and yes, you don't need an antivirus software if all your sources are legit.
But just look at the last few pages in here, from people asking for cracked versions of an app, to "who buys Blu-rays, just download them" mentality, how on Earth would you legitimise and make sure these "sources" are not compromised? I would figure if anyone here is so BOLD to claim that you don't need antivirus programs, they're sticking to approved, safe and clean sources, then yes, I would agree that you don't need antiviruses. The question here is, is everyone here sticking to the clean sources or not? So please, get off your high horses and stop thinking that you're immune. A simple rogue keylogging software embedded after you've "visited" your favourite Megaupload/Rapidshare/etc site on your supposedly safe Alienware ,while you're "supposedly" safe and going about your business buying stuff online, or purchasing games through Steam can easily compromise things later, from something that as mildly annoying as "slowing down your computer" or as devastating as identity theft/CC fraud. Bottom line is, you wanna be antivirus-less, watch where you're surfing and downloading/installing stuff into your Alienware. Question is, with the laidback, "who cares where I get these files as long as I got them" attitude/mentality I see around here, is anyone practising safe netiquette like how you're practising safe sex these days, or is all this lip service? |

I think the turning point to talking about antivirus here is when some claim BOLDLY that you dont need one. I don't see them being careful with their internet activities and their download patterns, otherwise I would agree that antiviruses are not necessary.
My M15X has ZERO antivirus app now, but I ran it SPECIFICALLY just for games, and patches and downloads are done from trusted sources. It ran without a hitch right to this moment. If you can deal with it this way, then yes, skip the AV. The moment you dabble with cracked .exe files, patches from unknown sources and the likes, you're like leaving your front door open with no locks on. |
