  • Build a desktop, save thousands

  • @fake123450101 you could, however some people are not as "computer orientated" as you, therefore if they want a gaming laptop/computer and they see a high-end company selling them, then its abit of a no-brainer of you ask me as alien ware sell very good laptops and desktops and as far as i know have some pretty decent kit inside them

  • @55hatter That's why google exists, and you could make something as the same performance of an alienware by only spending about $1000 to make a desktop AND you can actually upgrade parts without forking over 4k for a new alienware that lasts 2 years.

  • Bought an alienware m17x two years ago.

    2.7ghz dual core, gtx 280M, 1900x1200, 2g ram, some other shit. This computer sucks. Everything multimedia (everything except games) is very hard to do on it. It has crashed numerous times and I've had it looked at and repaired 4 times now. The graphics cards are totally fucked up too. I'm scared to use it and usually don't.

    It plays games amazingly tho when it works

    Never get one

  • @TheRapture1000 are you sure you got an m17x? its minimum ram is 4gb...

  • can someone plzz hel me i want a good gaming laptop thats gonna last me about 4years should i go with ailenware m17x or asus g74sx-dh72 and should i upgrade if yes what should i take? plzz help

    am problay gonna buy a m17x what should i take like spec, ram, the intel chip.... etc

  • @maximej13 You should absolutely get the M17x Alienware laptop. Also, it depends on how well you want it to run, and the price rang. I am getting myself a M17x with 8 GB of ram, 750 GB of memory, and an i7 Intel Core Processor. It runs any game with max settings with little to no lag. I am getting it for about 1,500 dollars. I hope this helped.

  • @underground2035 Problem?

  • @underground2035

    dude why are you writing it on youtube go call them up or something dumass

  • Comment removed

  • Good for porn???

  • battery life sux i guess

  • @FHN1987 it should sux cuz it's a gaming notebook , and it's not a laptop it's called a desktop replacement :)

  • @FHN1987 yep, my mate's lasts about 27 minutes, your meant to keep it plugged in constantly though, pretend it's a desktop

  • This just shows how far technology has progressed over the last two years. Now the M17x has options for the GTX 580, the Intel Core i7, 3D video playback and more than twice the amount of RAM. Still an awe-inspiring machine, though! I just wish they'd change the case design...

  • Is the m17x That much better then the 14x?

  • @xChappydog115 yes.

    M14x you can't upgrade the video card. M14x runs hot, because the gpu and cpu shares one heatsink and fan. M17x has 2 fans and a dedicated gpu which you can upgrade anytime.

    M17x is also not that big...M18x is huge, but m17x is pretty light for what it is given.

  • I entered a contest to try and win a m17x, I need a new laptop badly my nephew spilled coke over my current laptop so im missing like 3-4 keys also the most vital when gaming. I've got a broken battery so I need to have it's power plugged in constantly otherwise it shuts down.

    So please god seriously let me have this little bit of luck so one of my dreams can come true that I own an Alienware laptop!

  • @bonbiniTj If you're going to use your PC for gaming I'd recommend a stationary computer: it's cheaper, more customizable, and more powerful. But if you travel a lot or use your PC at work you would obviously need a laptop.

  • This is my dream machine!

  • wtf is your special needs self even talking about.

  • Is the m17x much faster then the m14x?

  • @XStreamGunz no it will crash and you will be sorely disappointed

  • Can i play super mario bros. on it?

  • thumbs up if your watching this on your alienware!

  • ordered mine 2 days ago. :)

  • @michaelfarrell6 you will be disappointed soon... let me know how it goes

  • @BigUpToNJ I'll let you know. I just hope there's no problem with the first boot up and I have to return it..

    I'm also thinking about making a video of it.

  • @michaelfarrell6 cool. i would gladly watch it! I had my m17x for a few months... then it crashed..... a few months later it crashed again... then again, and when i called tech support they said I was past the time that they could help me and hung up on me.... they are pieces of shit!

  • ALIENWARE M7700 LAPTOP, WORKS GREAT! : on ebay.... ONLY FOR 154.20$

    ENDS IN 3 HOURS.. IM ONE OF THE BIDDERS >.<

  • How is a 17 inch laptop a notebook?

  • i was wondering if the 120hz monitor is worth the money instead of the 60hz

  • I lolled at his golden chain around his wrist. Maybe he could afford it to buy because there is still enough stupid people to buy those WAY too overpriced laptops...

  • THAT A PUSSY LAPTOP!!! you should se my amazng acer asprie 5750 with i3 and intel HD 3000 playing crysis on high settings with no lag!!!!

  • Does this lag on pacman?

  • this shit looks gay and why pay that much..

  • @TheNYCkilla95 i honestly dont know why you're watching this video then

  • @em34ev3r seriouse im stateing that this is bs you dont need this its a waste of shit if you pay for this your the biggest dumbass in the world

  • @TheNYCkilla95 I actually have an alienware, but not this model. Although I agree its expensive, you also get major performance in portability. Try bringing your pc to the airport and play crysis besides me and see who looks stupid :]

  • @em34ev3r well im not a computer game freak like u are im more of a consol i really think playing consol games on ur laptops are retarted.....

  • @TheNYCkilla95 then wtf are you doing in this video lol? Little jealous?

    

  • @TheNYCkilla95 What the fuck are u doing here then??

  • my calculator has better specs than that.....;) LOL

  • I like alien ware but its way to expensive

  • i'm not a gamer, but i just want this cos it looks so fucking cool

  • alguien vio tambn la manzana de apple? o.O

  • can i play mario on this computer?

  • good

  • lol 1499€ in europe

  • Can it run Fallout 3 or Fallout New Vegas

  • @MrLANDRONICS OH YEAH :D

  • @TehTakeh What about BF3 

  • @MrLANDRONICS Yeah sure ! They got the R2, it really depends on the specs you put in it, but it will run it for sure.

  • Alienware=1337 gaming.

  • Super excited to know that I can change my colors on my keyboard, and also change where I want the colors to change at!!! :D

  • I hope it will be able to run Minecraft O:

  • OMG $4849, I better start selling my organs.

  • @domdomdom1993

    What ?

    In Germany it cost ~ 2000€ xD

  • @NBRverliebtIHP If i send you a kidney could you send me one.

  • @domdomdom1993 Lol, it cost that much 2 years ago.

    Now you can a i7 one for wayyyyy cheaper, under $3000 and it'll blow this core 2 quad processor out of the sky.

  • @em34ev3 lol, only 3g's. dude where in a financial crisis. if it cost 1g i would still consider it expensive. I just thought with this being named a notebook it would be a decent budget system that could handle modern games in low medium settings. owning something like this is just a dream 4 me. if you find n a alienware system that cost 50$ send us a message

  • @domdomdom1993 then why the fuck are you watching a video about alienware? go to a cheap emachine video or something.

    Also, when the fuck did I say it was cheap? You have to pay to play buddy, laptop gaming doesn't come cheap derp. Also the price you quoted is the old alienware m17x which u can probably buy for under 1g...there ya go.

  • @em34ev3r 00000oooooo check you out throwing a tantrum on you tube with strangers. notebooks are a form of cheap compact laptop so I expected it to be a reasonable price. I know alienware isn't know for it's completive prices but the word notebook misled me here. also by my top comment I'm guessing others agree that this is far to pricey. I didn't come here to argue so chillax and why are you swearing, grow up a little man the is a public webpage and theres no need for it..

  • @domdomdom1993 temper tantrum? lol you sound pretty offended yourself having been put in place. quit trying to save face. your price quote had nothing to do with my response to you. you freaked out about the 4800 price, but thats the old price of the m17x which has lower specs. im saying you can buy a m17x now that has specs far greater than the one in the video and you went on to write this diatribe on how expensive it is blah blah. sorry if u can't comprehend that simple little statement.

  • @em34ev3r I know why you'r being so disrespectful. Your in Germany, your acting like a kid and you have an expensive pc that may be malfunctioning. YOUR THE ANGRY GERMAN KID. I f you haven't been able tell I've lost interest in discussing the matter with you. 25 people agree with me 0 agree with you. Now please stay out of my inbox angry German kid thanks.

  • @domdomdom1993 who cares who agrees with you, you thumbing up whore. you're clown that got put in place. now excuse me if you're too poor to afford anything other than a cheap 2002 HP computer from which ur probably typing on.

    Also, Im not German, I'm an American lol, nice try @ failing though. probably saw my youtube profile and jumped to conclusion, not surprising at this point.

  • @em34ev3r google search porn, enjoy yourself and leave me alone. better yet find some friends and stop insulting strangers on-line. PS good guess I do own a HP laptop (compaq nx6325)

  • @domdomdom1993 your insults are pretty weak just like the hp computer you're using ;]

    Its exhausting trying to argue with an idiot who feels like they need to reflect their life on others to make themselves feel better.

    either you'e mad @ alienware for producing expensive laptops, or you're mad at me for putting you in your place, clown. So please stop hitting your reply button like a special needs student, and understand your arguments been blown out of the water 4 posts ago.

  • @domdomdom1993 also dont get mad @ others for having nice things. makes you look bitter...and sort of a loser, k thanks.

  • @em34ev3r can i ask a question? why did you start an argument? I was being nice and theres no need for your attitude.

  • Comment removed

  • @domdomdom1993 I never answered you sarcastically. I started my 1st reply with lol to emphasize the fact I was joking and not being rude. 4g + in the middle of a financial crisis is crazy (even by alienware standards) and if you look at the comments everyone agrees. It's easy to misinterpret text since you can't read body language like in a person to person chat (I have done it in the past to) but insulting strangers like that isn't necessary after all you know jack all about me.

  • @domdomdom1993 but thats really besides the point. Its funny how even after pointing out the mistake in your pricing, you attempt to discredit me by making personal insults. re-read your posts and see who started with childish insults, champ. You're like that bully who has zero confidence and needs the approval of his peers to act tough. isn't that why pointed out to me you had all those thumbs up after your posts so I shouldn't respond back to u? haha w.e bud don't try switching the script

  • @em34ev3r What mistake. AW is seriously expensive and so are the new models end off. 33 people agree so don't sole me out as the only idiot message them to and tell that AW is supposed to be expensive. (by looks of other comments you seem to enjoy insulting people and telling them other wise. You started the insult with "when the #### did I say this was cheap" Then you repeated that below and said pay to play. Your the 1 in the wrong man.

  • @domdomdom1993 Do you read with your eyes closed? i was pointing out to you, from the beginning that the new m17x are much cheaper than the m17x in this video which u quote (4800) but twice the performance. Yes you can get a decently speced out m17x for under 2100 dollars. Are they expensive, yes, I never said they were cheap. You're buying a specialize gaming laptop in a specialized market. Not exactly your common working ACER laptop you could get @ best buys. Sorry if that point escapes you.

  • @domdomdom1993 Do you also go into Ferrari videos and condemn Ferrari for trying to sell their 100 grand cars to people then argue that people who want ferraris should buy a toyota camry because it is much "cheaper." Lmao i guess imaginary people under the hood of a ferrari aren't worth the money, thats the point right? Lol what a joke you are get off your high horse, who are you to tell people what they can or cannot buy, with their money, its their money.

  • @em34ev3r I don't want to get involved in your little argument here, but that was the worst and most retarded analogy I have ever heard.

  • @em34ev3r You'd have to be mentally I'll (or have more money than common sense) to think paying over 3g's to push buttons and make an imaginary person run around your laptop screen is a good investment.

  • @domdomdom1993 You have no idea what you're talking about. It's obviously all about the imaginary people running around on your screen!

    Yes, there was sarcasm in the above statement, for those who can't tell.

  • @domdomdom1993 I'd have to be mentally? What does that mean? I think paying over 3 grand for a laptop is a good investment? Huh? When did I ever imply that? There you go assuming and making straw man arguments again, jeez you're really not good at this huh.

    BTW a $2100 dollar i7 m17x compared to a quad core $4849 m17x (in this video) is quite a difference in price. $2749 to be exact. For someone who seems obsessed with AW I expected you to at least know the prices of their laptops.

  • @em34ev3r Lets both me sensible now. I think your a #### and you think I'm a ####. You think alienware a decent price. I think there way to expensive. I think you got owned. You think I got owned. We both disagree on everything. Lets agree to disagree I'm getting fed up of reading and sending messages especially since where going no where.

    If you reply to this message it better read one word. "Agreed"

  • @domdomdom1993 Actually..The m17x i7 configuration that I thought cost $2100 is actually around $1,500 right now + a $100 promo discount; it comes out to be $1,400ish..So I guess you're right I was wrong, its actually cheaper :] I think anything under 2K is a decent price for a beast gaming laptop. Now if alienware was selling the same laptop for $4850 as you claim, then yes I'd admit its way to expensive, but for 1.4K don't you think its a bargain?

  • @em34ev3r compared to other gaming laptops yes. I'm currently looking at the HP Pavilion g6-1220sa quad core amd apu, 6gb ddr3 1tb hdd. It seems to be laptop I can find that has respectable performance but is under $1000. My current laptop is being pushed way to hard trying to jobs it wasn't built to do.

  • @domdomdom1993 compared to other gaming laptops its sort of medium priced. What you get out of the alienware laptop though are the amenities and features you wouldn't get from other laptops but of course for some, the aesthetics appeal isn't nearly as important as the actual performance; which is why there are better laptops for the price out there. Asus G, MSI just to name a few.

  • @domdomdom1993 As for the laptop you're looking at, it's pretty good for the price. But if you're looking into 15 inch laptops there are more powerful laptops out there either under or little over 1000. Msi gt and Asus G53sx for examples, superb gaming laptops. I'm not sure about the reliability or quality of HP laptops since i've never owned one, but just looking at the performance aspect of it, it's pretty solid and couldn't go wrong with the price.

  • @domdomdom1993 actually the m17x could overpower few high end desktops. m17x is not a cheap budget notebook buddy i don't know where the hell you got that from. Again, why are you in a m17x video again?

  • @domdomdom1993 wtf 4849? In sweden the start price is 2217 dollars

  • @domdomdom1993 You could build a desktop gaming PC for about $800-$1000 better than this!

  • ... and eve online

  • Can it run MineCraft?

  • @mazix yes it can

  • The computer is so heavy that it doesn't need a battery, because it is nearly impossible to transport.

  • Comment removed

  • um, 1 hour and 4 minutes of battery life? Your kidding, right?

  • 1:35 Yes easy to clean, because i spill my applesauce on it ALL THE TIME!

    Also, it makes it fucking glare like hell

  • I bet he read all the info from a screen.. o.o

  • I'm getting this tomorrow :DDDDD

  • @BromanceChronicles lol my friend has one,there amazing!!

  • OMG THIS IS MY HEAVEN

  • @TheBizzle280 FUCK YES YOU CAN

  • I have 2 get it

  • I want to get a computer to play games on . Any recommendations ?

  • @chickentenderful if you want a good desktop PC to play games on , you should make one yourself because most modern gaming PC's are expensive . If your looking for a Laptop thats good to play on ,you should get an ASUS ROG (Republic of Gamers) , the G7 series . Hope this helps!

  • @lightavers32 ok thanks, i think ill just buy one of those laptops because i don't know how to build a computer.

  • can this play pokemon with no lag?

  • what is a arrow to the knee everyone says it

  • @MuffinPlumber lol what an idiot

  • @MuffinPlumber - Check the upload date please.

  • Oh...., What Evah! :)

  • @TheBizzle280 now that would be the perfeect laptop

  • i have a hp with 320 GB but a 1.6 ghz but can run games like F.E.A.R 2

  • @JCH3006 At 6 FPS

  • @JCH3006 thats weak

  • @randomrazr yeayour telling me but i got a good AMD graphic card

  • @JCH3006 ancient technology

  • @randomrazr true true but at least it gots plentty of memory but its ok its just a starter really

  • @randomrazr yea but also i only play o.ld games like grand theft auto vice city

  • The best Alienware review i have seen off late...

  • Does anyone know if this can be used as a

    work computer for writing papers and stuff using word for high school?

  • @TheBizzle280 Hell Yes

  • Wooow, graphics are better than my Atari!!

  • this would be so much more appreciated than a macbook pro

  • i used to be an arrow..

    then i took an alien in the knee..

  • @TheBizzle280 If you can code & play WoW with one hand then, yeah.

  • Guys guess what ? The Apple MacBook pro running windows is actually a better computer than this so ya might want to reconsider buying one of these. Though I have to say these look a hell of a lot better than macs

  • @TheDominic2711 alienware is gaming purpose mac sucks at that stuff -.-

  • @TheDominic2711 and not to mention theres a 18x now

  • Im thinking about buying this computer, but I wanna be shure it can run Shogun 2 total war on ultra, and Battlefield 3 on ultra with no problems? anyone knows? going to use it for studies to, and I want a relatively good computer ;)

  • @skuggedreper man dont do it! i got the model shown with same the same speks ... it can do it..but they are riddled with problems. I played skyrim with it doesnt break a sweat (can get pretty warm 70'C) but if i had my time again...id keep my $3500

  • @woodyhulst Well, I need a good computer, that will last me for a long time, Im going to study abroad this fall, and the only thing I'll have is my computer, since everything else will be dubbed, and I dont speak the language, and Im most likely to be living there for 7 years, so which portable computer would you recomend?

  • @skuggedreper @skuggedreper I'm uncertain about Shogun 2, however Battlefield 3 won't be possibly to run on Ultra (smoothly) with this laptop. High settings, with lower AA will however most of the time give you a smooth playing with some occassional microstuttering. (laggy screen)

    If you can settle for a stationary computer you can get a better one than this for half the price.

  • @Katash01 Well, a stationary computer would be a bit hard to drag to school every day :( + im most likely moving to study abroad this fall, in a country where everything is dubbed, so my computer will be the only way I can enjoy movies or series or anything like that : but ofc studies comes first xD

  • and it comes with an slr45 fr23 475y 567rs blahblah so many numbers and letters :(

  • @camdoodlebop8197 All the info exist in the description, but I do agree they should've had a smaller window up showing all the specs he went over right on the screen. It's not hard to fix afterall :)

  • why are there no alienphones ?

    i sure want one if there were any !

  • Dude, I have the R3, they flipped the input/output sockets xD

  • omfg!! sweet

  • Like a boss!

  • casual or hardcore gamer it doesn't matter. if you want your gaming experience to be the best BUY THIS.. i'm using hp and it easily overheats after a few hours playing on it.

  • were can i buy alienware case?

  • @iSt3ve1 Damm i never herd that 1 before .. U Blow

  • @funnykid4321 not u my falt

  • Is this laptop good for the casual user who doesn't really game? Because I was thinking either this or the hp envy 17.

  • @TheJBrad69 Why do you need a laptop this expensive, then?

  • @TheJBrad69 why not just buy a regular laptop then? its much lighter and less expensive if your not gaming? o.o

  • im trying to get this laptop but i only have about 1400-1500$ so what is a most have in order to get my moneys worth or is it even worth buying for that much?

  • @mariomcm90 i have the m14x and its more then enough

    it runs every game fine but it struggles on higher end games like battlefield

  • @TheEagle4588 i got the 17x R3 soon i gonna get the m18x

  • I hate this new layout....

  • i used to be an alien...

    then i took an arrow to the knee..

  • @MrDJ2105 BT!

  • @MrDJ2105 now everybody says that. why?

  • @pimpisen

    because it (was) is the new meme from skyrim!

  • @MrDJ2105 Why is every body saying i took an arrow to the knee? I seen this on another alienware laptop video

  • @YSKWeXclusive its from skyrim

  • @YSKWeXclusive

    Cause it's a meme :P from skyrim

  • @MrDJ2105 far from a meme, its just another short lived trolling phrase....just figured these retards would have though of something more creative

  • @davidgsr2k

    lol one thing to say....U mad bro, u mad?

  • @davidgsr2k watch out guys , we have a mad boy here

  • @MrDJ2105 I used to be strait

    Then i took MrDJ2105's comment to the knee

  • Bulky as fuck

  • Siick 2 i,s because I'm cool.

  • hey, i'm gona get the m15x, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280M but a i3 processor, will it be good? it has like 3 ram. plz tell.

  • @irdghlzeiurghlui dude a m11x can run bf3 no problem even the lowest graphic cards and stuff are ok to run battlefeild 3(bf3 is the a game you need a really good computer for because the graphics can make you computer crash but an alienware can handle it)
