yea yea i know its boring, but as true Alienware owner, you should know it!

QUOTE
- Alienware is an American  computer hardware company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dell, Inc. -
- Alienware was founded in 1996 by Nelson Gonzalez and Alex Aguila -
- the Alienware name was chosen because of the founders' fondness for the hit television series The X-Files, hence the theme to their products, with names such as Area-51, Hangar18, m15x, and Aurora. -
- It mainly assembles third party components into desktops and laptops with custom enclosures for high-performance gaming. -
- Alienware was originally established to tap a niche in the high performance gaming market -
- Also offers for sale rebadged computer peripherals, such as headsets, computer mice, monitors and keyboards. -
- The company products are also differentiated by their science-fiction based designs. -
- Dell considered buying Alienware since 2002, but did not take any action until March 22, 2006, when it agreed to purchase the company. -
- Initially, Dell maintained its competing XPS line of gaming PCs, often selling computers with the same specifications. -
- On spring of 2008, the XPS brand was scaled down. -
- On June 2, 2009, The M17x was introduced as the First Alienware/Dell branded system. -
- Alienware now represents the premium performance space in Dell’s consumer family of products -
- This launch also expands Alienware’s global reach from six to 35 countries. -

not sure if anyone notice but the screen resolution of the basic specs is only 1600x900 compare to the R2 version which has the 1920x1200 standard.Maybe its a bait version for them to bring out the m18 at a later time  unsure.gif

if you are aiming for M17x, then kindly wait for few more weeks so everything is stable. the price and specs is somehow.. weird.

i don't mind single GPU but 2TB 6970...

from my experience, you might want to avoid dual GPU configuration. yes it is powerful, but that powerfullness may cause throttling if the provided PSU is insufficient. i am personally having it right now, unable to overclock my GPU to its maximum potential. just running at the factory clock only. some of the other user saidif you are using single GPU and you overclock it to its maximum clock, you may run as powerful as SLi. (excluded long term effect of OCing and games engine optimization toward SLi)

if there is any single GPU with 2GB DDR5, that is quite sufficient. unless you are crazy bencher like GreaseMonkey wub.gif

QUOTE(ayil @ Jan 12 2011, 12:22 AM)
from my opinion.

IF I'm one of Dell sales team lah smile.gif

i will obsolete M11X and M15X.

focus on M17X and M18X.

then buyer for M11X / M15X if rich they'll sell their product
since discont item already, and buy the latest M17X + M18X.
I guess that's why I cannot work directly with Dell. Mahahaha.
*
i believe sales team only provide a guidance and help during the purchase process only. the party that brain all those product are Dell Engineer, IMO.

and if i am one of them:

1 - maintain & upgrade M11x - maybe SB + ATi 6000 Series or Nvidia GTX500 Series, just to make it look cool. people dig that brows.gif

2 - maintain & upgrade M15x - important because higher than M15x will be troublesome for customer that searching for both portability and performance.

3 - scrap M17x-R3 and concentrate more on M18x. coexist of both M17x and M18x will only decrease the sales for both products, and i don't think it will be good for business since the more you bulk them item from manufactures, the cheaper the price will be. just make M18x as an ultimate gaming laptop ever. throw anything you can possibly put in that beast.

my m15x/nvidia gtx 460m is on stock driver 259.64 out of the box

im keen to update to the latest updated driver from nvidia - 260.99.  But i always get error "install cannot continue - this graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware"

the same with the latest beta driver 266.35

tried using this here : http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/278...ile-oem-mobile/
with the inf replacement technique but still same error

need help and any suggestion to update graphics driver.  thx
*
maybe its better for you to wait the newer release by the Dell themselve. did you use Automatic Detect on the Nvidia, by the way? its easier since they will find the right driver that suit for your hardware.

anyway, just sharing my humble experiences regarding video driver - latest doesn't always mean better. its good for you if you having your personal collection of 3dMark06 test for the respective driver, so you can compare which one is the most stable for your laptop smile.gif

Hi, i need recommendation here. I just see a good offer of the alienware m17x with this spec and the price of $1500 include shipping, should i take it??

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

actually the offer form ebay, if i want to change the spec to new sandy bridge he said the total
price will be $2000, should i take it or it is only scam??
the process of transaction all will done through ebay channel.
waiting for reply of anyone that have experience shopping online  notworthy.gif  nod.gif

for your information, motherboard used in M17x-R1, M17x-R2 and M17x-R3 are all different.

you can't simply unplug first generation of i7 (i7-920XM) and plug SandyBridge just like that. unless the seller willing to change the mobo as well.

and i never heard of 4 years warranty support too.. sweat.gif

Anyone know how to control the fan spin speed other than using Hwinfo32 to tweak it..
Doctor or Puto can help?
*
my advise is don't manually chance the setting since the processes is way beyond our estimation.

but if you still eager to adjust the fanspeed, you need to override the BIOS setting using specific software (some of BIOS version have their own certain temperature to maxed up the RPM of the fans), and it might causing disturbances on other aspects especially system temperature since you will be playing with BIOS power consumption's setting.
