QUOTE(wingedman @ Oct 3 2010, 11:48 AM) Hi guys, I'm in the market for a new gaming laptop and I wanna ask you gurus for some opinions. you pay extra for Alienware name (software, Alienware FX etc) , material used, efficient cooling system and upgradibility as well.I know Dell was trying to downplay its XPS line as the gaming line, but when I did some online comparisons I found I could actually get an XPS with very similar specs to the M15x with just a Studio XPS16. Both have: Intel® Core™ i7-740QM (1.73GHz, 4Core/8Threads, turbo boost up to 2.93Ghz, 6M cache 8GB (4GBx2) 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM 1GB DDR3 ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5730 640GB SATA HD-- XPS is 5400RPM while M15x is 7200RPM The only other difference is the screen, I guess: M15x 15.6 " Full HD (1080p) WLED (1920 x 1080) Display with TrueLife™ vs XPS' 16.0"UltraSharp™ Full High Definition (1080p) RGBLED Display with TrueLife™ But the price difference is like RM1.3k! That's an Apple-like premium right there. Perhaps for the cooling system? Also, would it be better to buy direct from Dell or reseller? Thanks guys don't gaming using laptop that not build for gaming. you will slowly decrease your laptop's lifespan. |

QUOTE(lk_chin @ Oct 3 2010, 08:28 PM) hi lk_chin,sorry for the late reply. damn busy with new department anyway, did you ever perform clean uninstallation of your GPU driver? i mean after proper uninstall, clean all the leftover data or files; then reinstall a latest driver provided from Dell website. then after that, try to google this software "nHancer". its free software, that you can use to control advance setting that related to GPU. IF ATi card cannot be use together with that software, you need to dig deeper. i think i did heard someone use that software using ATi card. with that nHancer, you can set the setting to utilize CrossFire for programme that you need to use it. i use it A LOT for games that cannot support SLi in default |

QUOTE(JustinLFJ @ Oct 6 2010, 10:48 PM) Kave is the best 5.1 gaming headphone i ever use. tried Razer, the one with 7.1 Simulated, but still prefer Kave eventho Razer is bit lighter.use Kave with Creative X-Fi and there goes your ears, sneeking and hearing footstep during spawnkilling lol. QUOTE(putochip123 @ Oct 7 2010, 12:10 AM) mY FRIEND DO BUY THE MOMENTUS HDD, what i had tested is, "DISSAPOINTED" how long is your duration of review? reach one day?From the review is good, but in real time use, sad!!, i rather buy a normal 7200RPM 1. RM500 i save the money go for SSD much more better. Im waiting for intel put in SandForce, then i will upgrade My SSD to Another lvl of SSD if you understand how Momentus XT works, you know that you have to use it for quite some times before its cached everything. review that for at least one week and share with us back the result. ask Astria, he'd use it long enough to provide a review for us |

Normally wait for the US Guys to self mod but I haven't heard any news of GPU's from NVidia for sale.... since we already reaches Q4 2010, why don't you relax for a a minutes while waiting Q1 2011? i know you are eager to modding your M15x, again and yeah, i also didn't hear any rumors about GTX400M Series into Alienware, yet. who knows, Dell Alienware always good in making surprise for their fan QUOTE(AlexAw @ Oct 7 2010, 04:56 PM) mind sharing your details of Alienware? |

QUOTE(AlexAw @ Oct 8 2010, 07:49 AM) your question is too general. you mean upgraded HD5850 to which model?you can upgrade it to GTX260M and HD5870 as well. QUOTE(julchin_09 @ Oct 8 2010, 06:21 PM) you mean only the processor?if yes, the best way i can think is compare the price with eBay. you might want to quote slightly lower than what mentioned there since yours is almost a year aged QUOTE(casperito @ Oct 8 2010, 08:03 PM) my m11x-R2 is on its way... can't wait for it... your link is broken by the way, do anyone have any idea where to get this http://www.mobileedge.com/alienware-m11x-n...ok-sleeve.html# ??? |

QUOTE(cy-yang @ Oct 8 2010, 11:49 PM) only applicable for R2 version with newer mobo compared to mine, R1, theoretically.but technically as well explained by Grease, its quite impossible since the power requirement just insufficient to be feed with current PSU. not worth it if you ask me. i prefer to buy the whole new unit for myself. |
