Alienware M11x CES2010

[REAPER3382]

Dude I'm 6,3 and I really want this laptop and hope to get it within the week but damn that things small

[TFsDana]

@REAPER3382 lol i will buy it for my birthday! today which is feb 26 and today is feb 21 :D!!

[bupeking2000]

now here ima sound stupid but ya know, I wana learn all about coputers and computer science is the best right, You learn about the hardware and the program side, I wana say. I just a little confused on what you learn. And I know it differs between schools. But is that pretty much correct, input would be great ty.

[huzaifasyed1]

you call that thin

[CoolGuyDaBest]

yes but will it blend?

[lildavid73271]

he seems preety nerveis



[Lokivoid]

.....If there going for the portability factor, then why the hell did they decide to use a super glossy screen.

[FixateYourself]

@Lokivoid i think its so the resolution looks better with the glossy screen, but yeah pretty weird.

[Bowhayz]

Dawg mine is getting here on the 19th!!!

[DecreeB]

I went to their site and customized one of these, ended up cutting a bunch of stuff and still ended up at $1551.91! Totally worth it, I'll bet.

[fiandaca123]

I bought this! The only bad thing it the wait time. i got to wait close to 3weeks for it to show up.

[jetpack1986]

screw the ipad! this is the shit, at least I can game with it!

[carfanactic112]

For a second i thaught he said it will retail for $100,000 then i watched again and realized he said under $1,000

[tmnijhuis]

@carfanactic112  nice..

[setmeals]

just buy! MSI GT780R.. it's more powerful than this alien shit!

[jetpack1986]

@setmeals now I'm not defending the AW but try to be fair when comparing between products! M11x is made for portability in the first place! for some people it isn't a bad choice at all! plus the GT780R is $600 more! for that amount of cash you can build a gaming rig the performs the same as GTX560M (IF) not better!

[black9897]

I'm not a gamer, but I want one cuz they look cool and you can custimize so much. I'm guessing they're good for surfing the net, music, pics, videos, other normal stuff?

[Twiiggles]

@black9897 I would think so.

Its just like any other laptop without running a game.

[Osmund16]

i didnt got what he said, does it take mw2 at very high settings or not !?? well, mine does, but i got the m11x r2, with the besst specs there is...

[funnyxaxier]

i am going to save to buy one of theses because iam 14 and i cantr afoord 3and half grand for a laptop alianwarem18x

[GurkiratBhatti]

@funnyxaxier im going for the 700$ one they have for minecraft and custom maps on waw, it sucks being a kid, I NEED A JOB

[trogdor1424]

@GurkiratBhatti get a baysitting gig, it's not to hard to find work as a kid

[weestitch]

lol i thought he actually said its gonna retail for 100 thousand dollars! hahaah until i listened again ;)

[tjcharlier]

can this run minecraft with the settings at max?(fancy, far, etc...)

also, is there anywhere in canada where i can walk into a store and try it before i buy, like bestbuy or futureshop?

[iDarkMadness]

@tjcharlier This can run Crysis max. Crysis is like one of the worlds most detailed game. Yes it can run Minecraft 256x256 texture on MAX. WOOT.

[sketchybananas]

@tjcharlier I saw it at a futureshop on vacation in kelowna. I was suprised because I haven't seen it retailed anywhere else

[pirahnaking685]

How do u get ur name on da metal plate?

[hollowrun]

@pirahnaking685 u have to order it online

[Fizzcarzi]

i wish i was watching this on alienware

[YTmich12]

can this run cod 7 best settings no lagg ???

[Willis53y]

@YTmich12 yeh! it can run crysis 2 at full settings with about 20 - 30fps per a second!!

[WeAreEquality72521]

Can you use this as a primary computer?

[Willis53y]

@WeAreEquality72521 yes! you can use it for word excel games internet all that stuff!! lol

[Nenyana]

Looks like a rabbit trapped in headlights....

[Mzgajaleti]

i dont want to be rude or something... but ive been gaming for a long time... and alienware computers are good, but they overcharge you too much..

[gunguy50]

@Mzgajaleti but they look gooooood!

[Mzgajaleti]

@gunguy50 they do... but you could probably buy a laptop with same specs 200-300$ cheaper...

[gunguy50]

@Mzgajaleti Yeah, that's true. But most of the people buying AW, buy them cause of the look...

[Rapunitskate]

1 question can i plug a monitor in ? probably yes but i just wanna make sure lol

[epictwiglet]

@Rapunitskate i believe the r1 you can, but the r2 and r3 removed it, something to do with the optimus tech.

[thepanayiotis1990]

@Rapunitskate For sure u can, from the HDMI port

[Rapunitskate]

@thepanayiotis1990 oh ya lol forgot about that.

[hollowrun]

@Rapunitskate yes and a hd tv in to it too lol

[harissa06200]

sa se voi ki lé pa a lui lordi

[tennisstar523]

cant wait to get this for compsci as a secondary laptop :)

[MrInSaNePlAyEr]

Is this any good for world of Warcraft

[r0lle103]

@MrInSaNePlAyEr yes

[locomotive185]

Hmmmmmmmmm

[locomotive185]

Hmmm

[xXxDrRobxXx]

I got mine for only $710 with upgrading from 2gb memory to 4gb and going from 160gb hard drive to a 250gb hard drive. Overall, its an amazing little machine. You can get it for only $599 with the min. hardware. I love this computer, perfect for any gamer or traveler on the go.

[StrategyArchives]

these things are only like $599 now.

[MrKevinKnops]

too expensive.....

[quicksliversbutt]

@yourmotheris19 you will want to upgrade the ram to 4gb and the hdd to 250+ but yea everything else is otherwise performance

[mixermake]

@yourmotheris19 son, you need to settle your little rectum down, Looks should not deceive you, as a laptop that computer SUCKS its 4.5 pounds, which is way more than any laptop should weigh, I would definetely not game on a laptop with an 11 inch screen I would rather play Halo Reach (which you can not play on pc) on a 50 inch LED backlit display with a surround sound theater and then when I go outside I do something like soccer or basketball or anything instead of lug that huge thing to a cafe.

[quicksliversbutt]

@mixermake if you cant lift 4.5 pounds then maybe you NEED to be playing basketball. also nobody gives a shit how much money you waste on electronics... nobody asked.

[mixermake]

@quicksliversbutt dude, I am probubly stronger than you, all im saying is that a 4.5 pound laptop should have atleast a 13 inch screen, look at the alienware m15x its 10 pounds, at 10 pounds, just get a desktop. And if your wondering I'm actually looking into buying this laptop after I recently got the red ring on my xbox so, which is better the i5 or i7.

[siulamtau]

@mixermake i7 is better

[quicksliversbutt]

@mixermake i dont care how strong you are. if you're so strong then why do you care about weight. theres always asus laptops too. or you could buy a new xbpx, and get a regular laptop.

[mixermake]

@quicksliversbutt I care because I can't longboard to school with 20 pounds in my backpack, 5 of it being my computer, or in the m15's case 10 pounds of it

[gagehelms]

@yourmotheris19 well, i did all the alienware recommended stuff and then i got the headphones and the backpack thing cuz it looked awesome and i put some pre - installed games.

[mixermake]

If you are going to game why dont you just get an xbox? seriously this is really impractical.

[Kaneownzu]

@mixermake you sir, are one of the only people on here that is making sence.

[Ino64shini]

@mixermake maybe because you can care it everywere and you don't need socket

[mitchscene096]

@musicboy412 I'm doing something like u but I'm only upgrading the processor to 4 bit u think that'll be just fine?

[havelock285]

I customized mine for 950

[MusicBoy412]

@havelock285 same Base model and all i upgraded was the Memory to a 320

[FulOFunable]

Ordered mine exactly a week ago :) Should be here today :)

[gagehelms]

wow yeah its under $1000 when its stock. customize it and i got up to $1913.95. yeah like my parents would buy me a $2000 laptop.

[tomsaladfingers]

@gagehelms That's why you get a job and don't rely on your parents for everything. That's what I did and mines turning up on Wednesday :D

[gagehelms]

@gagehelms well im 15 and i will get a job soon

[XxLAx2th3MaxXx]

[zxcv1175]

[Duskaos]

[AIienwareM11x]

AIienwareM11x Best Laptop!!! -Small&Fast To Play Hardcore!

[chikensaregood]

[chikensaregood]

[corrie127]

[TheWetBac]

[lavigna586]

@TheWetBac

jeez learn to talk proper lol jk

[Anction]

Does Anybody Know If Theres A Store That Sells Alienware Products In Australia Or Do You Like Have To Order It Through The Site?

[MegaDeathwarrant]

@Anction alienware doesn't have any stores period only where their manufacturer is located so yes you do have to order.

[TechnSport]

@SwedishDoorHandle

i7 core? 3 GB of RAM?



[warlingo]

@TechnSport Yes, the system can be drastically updated with the i series, and plenty of other stuff. The price will double if you fully upgrade.

[lan94]

man totally worth buying this over those lame ipad and mac

[lilguy49]

@lan94 without a doubt

[gentel916]

@lan94 r u jokin ? any pc is better than mac

[CoolGuyDaBest]

@gentel916 that's bullshit, macs may not be able to handle games but they maintain their speed unlike windows with their registry errors, drivers and fragmented hard drives not to mention viruses. I have a pc but macs are still great and you windows fanboys will never know the truth because you can't afford one.

[gentel916]

@CoolGuyDaBest FYI i am using a mac ,,l,,

[CoolGuyDaBest]

@gentel916 so.

[gentel916]

@CoolGuyDaBest u said i cant afford 1 -,-" .... u dumfuck

[CoolGuyDaBest]

@gentel916 well apparently that doesn't matter anymore but you're the dumb fuck considering your knowledge on computer hardware and software requirements as well as your grammar can compare to a consumer zombie.

[gentel916]

@CoolGuyDaBest blah blah blah blah blah blah .... Zombie ..... well thank you ! xP

[CoolGuyDaBest]

@lan94 did you just compare a tablet to a laptop? *facepalm*

[bullzisnipr3]

@lan94 I can't stand Mac.. If you just want something stupid simple, sure. But I'm constantly customizing :p

[SwedishDoorHandle]

Just got this baby with the i7 Core and 3 GB of RAM. Also bought a keyboard and a mosue with it <3

[SubliminalInfluence1]

Each time he slams the lid the sound makes me jump out of my chair. How can you beat up the laptop like that!

[o0ZporK0o]

@SubliminalInfluence1 they're gonna get that hinge problem everyone's talkin' about

[NikolaiBelinski413]

COMMENTcommentComment

[RougeSanta]

i hope the keyboard is water proof because i would be drooling from being mezmorized

[iTzChALLeNgEd]

Wait, if it's releasing in February how come you can already buy them online on certain website?

[sacraty8]

@iTzChALLeNgEd this was last 2010 =)

[BendikThe97]

Ahhhhhhh... X30 Times

[helintroy]

i have the m15x have to without the optical drive it suxx.. i have my 15x in i7

[link000000]

pfff....windows 95 could blow this thing out of the water!!

[aznshir0]

Is it worth upgrading from i5 to i7 for +$200 is there much diff ?

[olirain]

@aznshir0 i7 overheat on small laptops and less battery life

[manicindhouse]

@aznshir0 Absolutly not u can ramp up the i5 and it should be more than enough

[KizrMudz]

small but powerful. worth buying this then macbook and ipad

[WyvernX13]

@KizrMudz Duhh... like you can play games on a mac... (sarcasm)

[masteircheef]

@KizrMudz ive been wanting the ipad for a while... then i saw this and said screw the ipad really loudly

[Korvan1993]

@KizrMudz Yes! It has almost the same battery life but a bazzilion times more power.

[iPalmHD]

Does it takes black ops?



[MASTURCHEEF001]

@iPalmHD yup, at least, the i5 version with 4 GB

[Kaneownzu]

I heard this computer is crap without upgrades. Where do you buy this computer/ how do you get upgrades?

[MASTURCHEEF001]

@Kaneownzu alienware (dot) com!

[197bill]

I have mine for 3 weeks now am really happy about it you had made a good choice by choosing the I7

[TheKristijanF]

alienware is cool. i´ve got the m17x :)

[GreeenIguana]

I ordered my one today, that's so fuckin' awesome, I want it NOW, right NOW!!!!

[smellynachos]

I ordered mine this past sunday hopefully comes in early next week instead of EDD friday next week :( I want it so bad, these work days have been getting longer and longer as the day comes closer

[D6A6V6ID]

i need some help about this m11x... from all the people does this laptop is only good for games ????

[caboose5277]

@D6A6V6ID It's mainly built to handle games, but the processor options and the extra RAM can make it a great school laptop, or just for general use. However, should you use this laptop for a school laptop, you will need to buy a copy of Microsoft office to have access to word, power point, excel ect.

[wedcfryvguhj]

does the alienware m11x have like things u would use for school like microsoft word and stuff??? I am going into highschool and i love all this gaming stuff but i also nneed it to tak notes and go on the internet so please someone get back to me!!!!!

[youninja462]

@wedcfryvguhj Yes it has the microsoft things, if you order them.

Only con about this laptop is it doesnt have a disk drive.

[TigerMilitia]

@wedcfryvguhj

Get a standard laptop for work stuff. These are power houses basically portable desktops for gaming with short batteries.

[shank1020]

This laptop is so damn sexy

[PCGamer1471]

2 people got a mac

[RSZeCke]

woow nice machine... but can i connact my flatscreen on this m11x?? can anyone pls tell me ASAP?!

[shank1020]

@RSZeCke if it uses and HDMI cable, yes

[keyolol]

@RSZeCke mhm theres a HDMI and VGA port :D

[yuumeko]

my boyfriend got me this... i cried. it was the nerdy equivalent of getting a diamond ring.

[tvtuber12]

just ordered mine

[PriestOfTyr]

I have 12 days until mine comes, WOOOOOOOOOOH

[fredzderickhh]

does it have a dvd ram or disc drive in it?

[NelielTuOderswank]

@fredzderickhh No optical drive, they're about as useful as floppies these days, if you want to use disks you can purchase an external drive for only 17$.

[hammarbyar]

@fredzderickhh no u have to buy an external

[brunosmovies]

mac is best

[BlissKira]

@demmpa95 but this is a laptop, 4 g of ram is alot

[quicksliversbutt]

@BlissKira no 4gb is standard, any less is bad.

[BlissKira]

@quicksliversbutt Oh sorry, I meant a netbook.

[dathoe]

inside looks awsome. outside looks cheap.... too plasticky for my taste.

[MechaLuigi3000]

@dathoe you do realize that it is metal, right? as far as i know

[LiveFromUnderneath]

Screens Not big enough to be honest

[CandlesInADaze]

If they fixed the problem where the hinges break and the screen touching the keyboard, I'd buy this instantly.

[BryanJGoodson]

@THEHOLYSPLIFF under a thousand

[HeXzHD]

Is it a Notebook? A Small laptop?

[farcry2ffan]

@HeXzHD Its a small laptop, its 11 inch, so i dont think its classified as a netbook....

[rodridelsolar]

search youtube for my Alienware M11X hinge problem

[victory977]

@brandish122 couldn't have said it better myself

[yvaaar]

The one I want does not exist! m13x is perfect for me at school.

[swordpalme]

If you try Crysis on Full Grapich the Computer will burn down after a month

With the G73Jh you can survive in 5 years with full grapichs

This is Swordpalme Thank you for your patience!

Tested by Me and my friend Peter

[iljakaspar]

@swordpalme That's cute dude.

[BrokenToy150]

I have this laptop, it is amazing. When using the on board intel graphics I get around 8hrs batter life which last me through a school day. Plays all the latest games with most of the graphics max out. Its light, small and easy to travel with.

[gurgir]

if i was the camera man id grab the laptop and run!!!!!

[randomvideoman87]

@gurgir u mean after u throw the camera at him lol

[DJFamou5]

@gurgir heheahahaha! xD

[Jimmy4240]

im thinking about buying this laptop. is the m11x with 4gb ram and intel core 2 duo good enough to play world of warcraft on the highest settings? or do you need a better processor? i dont know much about computers

[NJMIgnatio]

@Jimmy4240 oh hell yes. That's more than enough to run WoW on high settings.

[Hey00130]

[vivi148]
