So the long-rumored Alienware M15x has been released. Here you have the most relevant information:
- It looks like a smaller M17x Allpowerful, but without numeric pad. It is heavy for a 15″ (from 4 kg), but it is more portable than the 17″ version (from 5.3 kg).
- The full range of Intel Core i7 Mobile is available: 720QM, 820QM and 920XM. There are some benchmarks of the Core i7 Mobile available.
- The fastest card available at the moment is a single Nvidia GeForce GTX 260M, with a GT 240M available too for the less performance-hungry. The GT 240M has been reviewed in the Acer Aspire 5739G, so you can find out some benchmarks at Notebookjournal and Notebookcheck (hint: it is very similar to an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650). Mobile versions of the ATI Radeon HD 5000 series are expected soon (Fudzilla, Portables4Gamers); can we dream about them to be an option then?
- Base price is 1499 USD (or 1179 GBP, or 1399 €).
Some useful links: more detailed info, pics and videos at Notebookjournal; support information, with manuals and specifications (found at Engadget); and finally, the order page at Dell US and Dell UK.
By the way, Alienware has new desktops computers too.
