Liamlcfc1 Posted 18 May 2011 Share Posted 18 May 2011 Hi all just ordered a Alienware MX11 laptop just wanted to know if any of you had one how good are they Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Criggers Posted 18 May 2011 Share Posted 18 May 2011 Cost a shed load for what it is. Might as well buy a desktop for what one of those buggers costs. Also there are a whole host of options and variances in them so impossible to say how good it is without knowing the specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adster Posted 18 May 2011 Share Posted 18 May 2011 There amazing for gaming. Thee processor combined with the graphics card can run endless amounts of things at once, they're insane. My friend has one, can run Skype, MSN, about 10 tabs on Chrome, Warcraft, Steam, YouTube and more without any lag on about a 2MB download speed. It's annoying cause I'm stuck with a shitty one that can't run shit all <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And want to run multiple things at once with no problem. Just out of interest how much is this laptop costing you? With the model you are getting I've read the speakers are down-firing so if you intend on playing music it can be quite muffled if your laptop is on your lap. It's a brill piece of kit though, well worth the money IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 18 May 2011 Share Posted 18 May 2011 As I've wanked over in other threads, I've recently just got an m15x - it's absolutely incredible. Runs the latest games with 0 lag on Ultra settings and I can happily alt-tab and mess around on Chrome whilst stuff is loading. Would make sure you actually realise how small the 11x is before you buy one, though. I mean it's not a notebook, it's a netbook, it's absolutely minuscule.

Not trying to put you off given you've already bought it but these things are designed as top of the line gaming machines. Seems a bit odd to pick an 11" screen for one.

Haydos Posted 19 May 2011 Share Posted 19 May 2011 I smell intergrated graphics. Obv, but the only games I play on it are FM, Age of Empires and occasionally Left 4 Dead when we LAN (runs alright for a couple of hours on med/low graphics). Not too big a fan of PC gaming so I've got the Xbox for Fifa, F1, Bad Company 2 so suits me. I'd blatantly get one if I was raking it in/didn't have a console/was a big fps fan but I don't think i'd get my moneys worth if I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
