The Alienware m17x is considered the "older brother" of the m15x, and m11x. This monster of a computer crams in the power of a desktop computer into a 17 inch laptop. This computer is a mobile desktop, perfect for bringing to a friend's house, but the mere fact that the computer weighs 10lbs and its battery life is (for lack of a better word) "crap" restricts the owner to bringing it on an airplane. The design speaks for itself, this computer is made for a hardcore gamer. According to the alienware website, it is "the most powerful 17" laptop in the universe". I saw this and thought, "wow, the ... more

The Alienware M17x is the best laptop I have ever owned! It is twice as fast as my desktop computer. And for only $100 extra, I upgraded my alienware to have 12GB ram! The Alienware looks as if it is from the year 2551 with it's sleek look, brilliantly lit keyboard, and futuristic lights. It can handle almost any game with little to no lag, with the graphics settings turned all the way up! Although very heavy, the laptop is basicaly a desktop, in the form of a laptop. Everything from the start up screen, to HQ youtube videos, run smoothly and fast. The screen of the laptop is great to! It ... more

This is an all business Labtop, if you are willing to pay a pretty penny. It is very entertaining messing with keyboard colors and can play nearly all new games on max settings. It has a great 17 inch display and will impress all your friends. Too everyone wondering yes it plays minecraft great. I recommend this to anyone who wants to take their hardcore gaming on the road. this is user friendly and somewhat lightweight. it is also great for multimedia programs like maya or 3ds max. It has a okay mouse pad but don't worry because it is a gaming labtop, so you pretty much have to use a mouse ... more

Build and Design: The Alienware M17x is all about design. The M17x represents a step in a new design direction for Alienware; it is their first model to have the all-new “Stealth” look. This notebook looks and feels like no other; having it on my desk as I type this review is probably as close to outer space as I'll ever get. Let's start the the build materials. The M17x is constructed of high-strength aluminum that is rock solid; there is not an ounce of flex on this machine. It is available in three colors – Black and Silver are no charge, while Red is currently a $99 extra. The sides ... more
