Actually, D3 requirement is very modest. Even my 5years old phenom9550 with ati5870 can Max it with no problem at all.
Strangely, my M17x with 680M can still feel a slight lag on occasion Think might be the raided harddisk setup is the culprit.

Nice mine is on its way... rubs hands I cant wait



Wished Dell continued making the M11x

Exactly 1 year ago i order my M14x R1.......!!

Lol... renewed my warranty last month

how much did you paid to get it renewed?
btw i just uninstalled alien respawn, as usual like what i did to my m11x once i got it. just makes the computer so much faster to bootup.

Thanks for tip........ Done it and I was

yep and dont forget to update your graphic card driver. two first things i always do, other than installing softwares and antivirus
then installed c-cleaner to disable some programs from starting up when i startup my windows. really make the whole system startup so much faster.

Woha so nice!

Which version of m11x you have? My R2 is using PC3-10600 DDR3 1333mhz SODIMM. R1 and R3 might defers.

Hello Guys, me just ordered my first alienware.. moving from desktop gaming to laptop gaming..

Does the SSD comes optimize or do we have to optimize it? Any specific guide for Alienware?

Anyone interested in M17x with GTX680M, 8GB RAM, 2TB HD, 120Mhz 1920x1080 HD LED with 3D vision 2. The one exactly with the same spec. like my? I know there is another unit up for grabbing directly from inside Dell. Only @ RM6800. They prefer direct face to face deal though.

that price is quite appealing

looks like a sweet deal
btw, has anyone already upgraded their x51 graphics? im planning to upgrade to GTX660 on my own. have been reading numerous websites, forums, dell community and also youtube channels, saying that its safe. just wanna know if anyone here did
and whats the price of gtx660TI and non TI in malaysia? preferably EVGA.
thanks!

^they will come to your place, just name the address

anyways a little bit about my experience with dell on site service. they came to my apartment today to fix the x51 famous wireless problem, it wasnt fix at all. problem still persist. so they sending another technician to fix again tomorrow. the previous technician was not knowledgeable, he didnt even know how to open up the x51 tilll he nearly broke the notch. i was really disappointed though. after putting the system back, it wouldnt start. he called dell center to ask. then he took out the 2 ram cards and put back again. thank god the computer start up after that.




and about 2 and a half years ago, that time my m11x had hinge problem. that time they didnt have the on site service for my area at shah alam. so they send someone to pick up my m11x and bring back to their center to fix. guess what, they did a good job fixing, replaced the lcd panel etc. but, they watched freaking PORN with my laptop. I found out cuz i checked the history, and etc. very shocked. but also, thank god they didnt do anything bad to my privacy, like email and stuffs. the hinge problem was solved for about 1 and a half year. just two days ago, i sent my m11x to alienware center here in US (cuz im in US now) to be fixed. second time, but no complains cuz its free. only downside is, i just didnt like it when customers paid full price for a premium product, but the design was defected
it will be back tomorrow and i will update you guys again. and also the technician will come to fix my x51 tomorrow too. had many issues (hardware) with my alienware products throughout these years. nevertheless, i am still a strong supporter and big fan. love alienware, and never will i ever buy another laptop or computer brand. i can live with the defects, as long as they provide exceptional customer service.

hey alienware users, i got a small question. so far so good for those users whom used for 2 years, does it bring problems? im previously an alienware m15x user but i sold the laptop after a year because porting to ASUS laptops that time.

Lol ... just give him a PM and he will quote you

My M11Xused for 2 years since 2010.

It's a R2 and the hinge still good though i can feel a bit wobby? (Touch wood) Overall still ok to use but can't handle some of 2012 games already.

Now M14X stepping its 13 months and still good to go ~.~ Installed Win 8 and fast
