To some up the Area-51 M51x the only word i think i can use is AWESOME!
When i was looking at the M15x there was so much to choose from in terms of spec. After many hours and alot of thinking i decided to choose the following spec:
[1] Area-51® m15x
Display: 15.4" WideUXGA 1920 x 1200 LCD (1200p) System Lighting: Alienware® AlienFX® System Lighting - Blue Operating System: Genuine Windows® Vista Home Premium - English Graphics Processor : 512MB NVidia® GeForce™ Go 8800M GTX Processor: Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme X9000 2.8GHz (6MB Cache 800MHz FSB) Memory: 4GB Dual Channel DDR2 SO-DIMM at 667MHz - 2 x 2048MB Turbo Cache Memory: Intel Turbo Cache Memory 1GB - Accelerate Data Transfer Speed System Drive: Single Drive Configuration - 320GB 5400 RPM SATA Smart Bay: 320GB 5400RPM (8MB Cache) Smart Bay CD/DVD/RW: Dual LayerBlu-ray Disc Reader (BD-ROM, DVD±RW, CD-RW) Sound Hardware: Intel® High-Definition Audio (24-bit, 192Khz) with surround sound Keypad: Alienware® Area-51 m15x AlienFX® Keyboard - English Wireless Network Card: Internal Intel® Wireless 4965 a/b/g/Draft-N Mini-Card Warranty: AlienCare 3-Year Free Phone 24/7 and Collect & Return AlienContact: Added Bonus with any AlienSupport Selection AlienContact - Remote Alienware Support AlienRespawn: AlienRespawn v2.0 Recovery DVD - Windows Vista Edition
This laptop took about 4 weeks to build as the parts where only just being produced, and where limited stock. I believe now that Alienware are in stock of all thier components so build time is much shorter.
When this laptop arrived it was sucurely packaged. And Delivery time was about 4 days.
This laptop is amazing. The power created by the overclock intel extreme processor is perfect for multi tasking and playing next generation games such as Crysis.
If you were to but the M15x with this spec it will cost you around £3000, and from point of view it is well worth the money.
The overall build quality is perfect, and the laptop feels sturdy. And unlike other laptops the screen is not floppy, it is restrict by powerful springs with the lid.
Despite the high spec and preformence, the laptop doesnt not create as much heat as expected, which makes this laptop practically perfect!
Final Note - For all you techno-geeks out there who love technological bling, this laptop comes with a fully intergrated LightingFX system, which allows you to change the colour pattern of the keyboard, power button, touch pad, interface buttons and screen rim. This adds that extra bit of Awesomeness to your monsterous computer.
