New Alienware Area 51-m5550 Gaming Laptop

New Alienware Area 51-m5550 Gaming Laptop
If you’re looking for top-notch performance, higher-end A/V connections, and futuristic design, the Alienware Area-51 m5550 delivers. However, if its terrible battery life, incomplete set of multimedia features, and high price sour the deal for you, keep on looking.

With its silver coloring, black accents, and glowing alien-head ornament, the m5550 looks way cooler than your typical mainstream notebook. The firm lid and scratch-resistant case give it a sturdy overall bearing. Measuring 14.3 x 10.7 x 1.9 inches, it’s not bad for its size at 6.8 pounds, though too bulky for regular travel.

The m5550’s translucent keyboard is quiet and comfortable to use except for a sinfully short spacebar that slowed our typing at first. The responsive touchpad and mouse buttons are of adequate size, however, and the touchpad features vertical and horizontal scrolling zones for speedier Web page and document navigation; we also like the external touchpad on/off button that lets you prevent unintentional cursor movement when using an external mouse.

The 15.4-inch widescreen display serves up crisp, vivid colors and images, and the WXGA native resolution, average for a display this size, offers a nice balance of readability and screen real estate. (Upgrading to a finer WUXGA panel adds $100 to the price tag—-a worthwhile investment for graphics pros.) We appreciate the external volume control wheel, and the two stereo speakers deliver clear audio, though they don’t crank as loud as we’d like.

The m5550 accommodates some deluxe connections: Besides three USB 2.0 ports, FireWire, S-Video, an ExpressCard slot, and a 4-in-1 card reader, you get a DVI output, for connecting digitally to an external display, and an optical audio port. Also onboard are Ethernet and modem ports, and there’s a handy Wi-Fi on/off switch.

Pricey for a mainstream notebook, the $2,429 m5550 we tested came equipped with a top-shelf processor, Intel’s 2.33-GHz Core 2 Duo T7600, which turned in a simply blazing MobileMark 2005 score of 279. Unfortunately, with high performance came high temperature: The m5550 ran quite hot, particularly on either side of the touchpad, which resulted in sweaty wrists during extended typing sessions. Unless you routinely work with demanding video-editing software, we recommend configuring the m5550 with a lower-end processor; it’ll generate less heat, extend your battery life, and save you hundreds of dollars, without sacrificing that much speed.

Powered by Nvidia’s mid-tier 256MB GeForce Go 7600 graphics card, the m5550 notched an impressive 3DMark03 score of 8,235. Gaming performance, on the other hand, was less spectacular: The m5550 turned in only 37 fps on our F.E.A.R. gaming benchmark (with settings on autodetect)—-not terrible, but insufficient for hardcore gaming.

For all of its processing muscle, the m5550 fails to live up to its multimedia potential: You get Windows XP Media Center 2005, but no TV tuner option to let you record programs to the 100GB hard drive; an IR port, but no remote; and no external controls for the dual-layer DVD drive. The included software package is similarly modest: Aside from the OS, there are two disc-burning apps—and that’s it.

In our battery drain tests, the m5550’s 6-cell lasted a meager 1 hour and 47 minutes whether the wireless connection was on or off—at least an hour and a half less than most mainstream models. The m5550’s Wi-Fi reception wasn’t particularly great, either; we detected an average throughput of 7.3 Mbps from 15 feet and 6.9 Mbps from 50 feet.

If you’re looking for superior processing performance at any cost, the Alienware Area-51 m5550 certainly screams. However, there are plenty of other, more balanced models on the market.

Price: $2,429

Alienware’s M11x Gaming Notebook

Alienware’s M11x Gaming Notebook
Alienware’s 11.6-inch, 4.5 pound, sub-$1000 gaming laptop has landed at the Geek.com offices.

The M11x is one most portable gaming systems ever, and one of the only one that can double as a rather nice thin-and-light laptop. It packs game-ready NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M graphics along with a Intel Core 2 Duo ULV processor (U7300) for extending the battery life as much as possible.

Starting at $799 this is computer is going to appeal to a lot of people, including those who want an Alienware but need portability or that have been dreaming about gaming on-the-run. There are downsides to the light weight though–you have an ultraportable sized display on a thin-and-light chassis, the battery is not removable, and you don’t have an optical drive. These three details feel relatively minor when you are gaming on a 4.5 pound laptop though.

Check back at Geek.com for a full review and check out our YouTube channel for further coverage of the M11x, including gaming benchmarks.

Alienware’s M17x Gaming Notebook Review

Alienware’s M17x Gaming Notebook Review
Alienware’s M17x gaming notebook might not have gotten a new name (more like a capitalization) but it did receive one of the most anticipated refreshes in laptop computing this year. The M17x will remain Alienware’s portable flagship as well as one of the most powerful laptops available today. If you are interested in gaming laptops, you have an appreciation for powerful computers, or you simply like industrial design, the new M17x is worth checking out.

alienware_m17x_05_cover

We posted a review of the original Area-51 m17x a few months ago. It was a solid system that was starting to show its age, but really needed some new internal components (especially video cards) more than anything else. Rather than just revise the guts, Alienware (read: Dell) completely blew the doors off. The laptop received a new, all metal-chassis, improved lighting, a revamped style (the Stealth design which all Alienware’s new products will eventually use in one form or another), a glass edge-to-edge display, and improved internals. The M17x got what the video card gaming enthusiasts are looking for (dual 260Ms or dual 280Ms) as well as high end processors, a 1920×1200 display, and more.

As tested the M17x was outfitted with Intel’s Core 2 Quad Q9100 (2.27GHz) processor, 4GB 1333MHz RAM, Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, 640GB of storage (dual 320GB disks in RAID0), the Nvidia 9400M integrated GPU, dual Nvidia GeForce GTX 280M graphics cards, a DVD burner, and wireless a/g/n with MIMO. Starting at $1799, our $3249 build is a solid one, but not through the roof. More RAM, and Extreme series processor, higher-end storage, and Blu-ray would have taken it to the next level… and easily over the $4000 mark.

One differentiating factor with the new computer is that there is an extra graphics chip inside. If you ever wanted to use the M17x on the go you could switch over to the on-board 9400M integrated graphics and improve your battery life because it draws much less power than, say, dual 280M cards in SLI.

alienware_m17x_12

Being a full-on desktop replacement and powerhouse the M17x is outfitted with an array of connections. These include: VGA, DisplayPort, HDMI, ethernet, 4x USB, Firewire, eSATA, expansion slot, card reader, slot-loading optical drive, and four sound jacks. Sadly the only connection on the back is for power, which means that ethernet is on the left side of the system, rather close to the front. The system has a webcam that is blended very well into the glass above the display.

The design changes were radical but overall things worked out for the best. The design is reminiscent of a muscle car, complete with a front grille and an angular hood (when closed), thanks to the pointed LCD lid. The aluminum skin on the chassis looks and feels great–it’s the single most impressive change from the previous generation. The trackpad is large and well designed, not that you’ll be using it much, and the keyboard is about the same as it was. The big change here is that there are multiple lighting zones across the keyboard so you can customize the colors to your heart’s content, and watch them bleed into one another–the effect is impressive even with the most goofy assortment of colors. The anodized aluminum comes in black, silver, and red.

alienware_m17x_02

The build quality seems very good, and, thanks largely to the aluminum, the M17x feels like Alienware’s best system in a long time. We’ll see how it holds up over time, but for now it seems great. The aluminum gives the case a roughness and an armor-like bulkiness that is a clear differentiator from the previous plastic and something that sets the expensive M17x apart from almost every system in its class. Not a single screw is visible on the outside of the computer, save for the four that hold on your custom nameplate. The unsightly Intel sticker was placed on the bottom of the computer, and Microsoft and Nvidia stickers don’t litter the palmrests either.

Of course, the new design is not without its flaws–the front grilles are a bit over the top, especially with their lighting (they don’t even have any active cooling behind them). Also the system is heavy, so moving it around is a struggle. Finally, it’s large; no effort was made to slim down the 2.1-inch thick behemoth, despite the addition of the 9400M which is used when you want to save power. If anything is lacking with the the build, it just might be the hinge though. There is a bit of wiggle to it when open, a common issue with 17-inch displays, and when shutting it you have to be careful because it wants to slam shut. The hinge is stiff when opening the system as well, and two hands are required. None of these issues are particularly bad, and working with all the glass and aluminum can’t be easy, but it’s a new design and the area could have gotten more attention.

In a problem area that was addressed, the touch controls are better than before. They still light up above the keyboard’s number pad, but now they seem more responsive. Also the confusing volume touch-slider is gone, in place of it are volume up and volume down areas. There is no mute area though. In another touch area, the trackpad is nearly flush with the palmrests, but it is textured with a hexagonal pattern and is surrounded by a backlit strip, making it easy to feel the difference between it and the palmrest, so this was not a problem. The trackpad is a good size, but given the area around it Alienware could easily have expanded it and allowed for an improved experience.

alienware_m17x_11

Alienware doesn’t put all this work into the hardware only to skimp on the software. The system comes complete with Alienware’s Command Center, which is made up of AlienFX (lighting controls), AlienFusion (power plans), AlienTouch (trackpad customization), and AlienSense (facial recognition-based security). While these won’t revolutionize your computer usage, they are a nice touch and something that might make people glad they got an Alienware. The lighting controls are especially cool since there are now 10 independently controllable lighting zones, each of which can be one of 20 different colors.

Anyone who followed the build up to the release of the M17x knows that Alienware was calling it the “AllPowerful”, clearly building up expectations. Justifying those claims shouldn’t be too hard when you have components like dual GTX 280Ms with 2GB of video RAM and a quad-core processor. The system, as expected, is quite powerful. Just how powerful (the system should range from “very” to “insanely”) will depend on what upgrades you get, but anything with the dual 280M graphics cards will easily take on the games of this and, in all likelihood, next generation. The dual 260M graphics card are a great option as well, and will save buyers some cash. An Nvidia rep had this to say about the choice: “The GeForce GTX 280M delivers up to 30% more performance than ATI’s top-of-the-line Radeon Mobility 4870 GPU, and the GeForce GTX 260M delivers up to 20% more performance than ATI’s Radeon Mobility 4850 GPU. They share the same underlying architecture, which is ideal for notebooks, and is a new super-breed of G92.”

The performance difference between 280Ms and 260Ms will vary based on workload, but it could be as much as 25-35 percent. The system handled everything thrown at it (Fallout 3, Left 4 Dead, Death to Spies, etc.) with ease and getting it to stumble was not easy. The M17x’s PCMark Vantage score was 5438, while the 3DMark Vantage score was 11777 (GPU: 9899, CPU 27334).

To get the maximum amount of battery life from the M17x you’ll want to go into Stealth Mode to use its integrated graphics*. This is a quick switch, but it did not end up being very effective for us. I recorded a recent podcast on the Alienware and using battery power and the 9400M the system lasted for just 66 minutes before dying. Using Skype is more demanding than typical internet work, but this time is still pretty sad. Don’t expect more than 90 minutes from this beast, no matter what you are doing. What this ends up meaning is that the 9400M really is more useful for saving power and cutting down on noise during desktop work than it is for mobile use.

alienware_m17x_13

For day-to-day use the M17x handled itself very well. They keyboard is large and easy to use and the display, aside from occasional glare, looks great. The speakers are very good for a notebook (even an 11lb. one) and I found the lighting to add to my gaming, not distract me from it. The system is cooled properly and doesn’t generate an excess of heat. Once all the hardware inside gets cranking the fan will be audible, and it can get noticeably loud, but it won’t drown out your game.

Alienware’s M17x is an excellent gaming notebook and it improves on the previous generation in almost every way. There were high expectations for it and those were met in just about every aspect. If you want a top-notch gaming notebook and you don’t mind spending the money to get it, the M17x will not disappoint–from the aluminum design to the premium components to the customizable lighting, the M17x stands out in a competitive field.

Even so, the question isn’t if the M17x is a solid laptop, but rather is the M17x more than you need. Starting at $1800 and easily getting over $2500 the M17x is a serious investment, and one that comes along when many sub-$1800 systems can play today’s games extremely well. Maybe you won’t be able to max out the settings or play fullscreen in two years, but you can spend significantly less and game very well. If have decided that you want the best possible gaming experience and future-proof hardware, this brings us to a final concern–the most exceptional aspect of the M17x comes in the form of those GTX 280M video cards in SLI. The lighting, the aluminum, and the other frill are all great, but ultimately the 280Ms are what people want. If these can be had elsewhere,then all Alienware’s extras might not be as appealing.

* Note: When testing the battery life I ran into what could be a flaw with the switching graphics. When starting the system without it being plugged into the wall, there is a warning saying that the M17x wants to move you to the 9400M graphics to save power… clever right? But then when I wanted to plug in and game later, the computer only had access to the 9400M–Fn+F7 did not switch in and out of Stealth mode (low power mode) and the Device Manager did not even see the GTX 280Ms. After some fiddling around it wasn’t clear what had happened, but after a little while I figured out that the issue was BIOS-related. After a reboot and hopping into BIOS, I found out that Hybrid Graphics had been disabled. Switching it back restored full functionality, but for someone without PC experience this would have been a problem. After restoring the BIOS option, Stealth Mode worked again and Fn+F7 switched between the two graphics solutions in just a few seconds. Alienware has confirmed that a new BIOS release will be available very soon, so this, and any other issues should be addressed.

Alienware M11x Laptops Under $200

Alienware M11x Laptops Under $200
You dont want to spend a lot of money, and one of the best options out there for you will be to look out for those Laptops Under $200, they are out there, but do you know where, let me help you out today with those Laptops Under $200.

While Dell’s introduction of the first gaming netbook on the latest CES or Client Electronics Present in Las Vegas wasn’t essentially the last word show stopper, the Alienware M11x did turn lots of heads, especially among the many gaming crowd. Having a small compact four pound gaming netbook with an 11 inch display goes in opposition to all the pieces related to gaming laptops, since most gaming notebooks are heavy, large and try to pack every thing below the hood that a first rate Gaming Desktop PC would possess. Huge emphasis on try.

But a gaming netbook goes completely in the other course, what’s up with that?

Properly, truly there’s quite a bit to note about this modern highly effective little machine primarily as a result of it comes from Alienware, the premier maker of gaming machines on the planet. Whereas many severe avid gamers swear anything however a PC for gaming is a silly concept; most would agree if it’s a must to lower your self to utilizing a gaming laptop computer – it would as properly be one made by Alienware. In other words, Alienware and computer gaming have develop into synonymous in the hearts and minds of most gamers.

In our ever growing demand for every thing cellular, maybe a gaming netbook is only the following illogical step! Make it small, make it highly effective and they’re going to come. Right?

Not so fast.

The jury continues to be out on this gaming netbook which will hit the marketplace in February and promote for under $1000. Which is still costly, considering many quality netbooks are within the $200 to $400 range. Will avid gamers snap up this transportable gamer with a purpose to have their games with them, irrespective of where they go? Judging by the recognition of such units as the Nintendo DS, the answer might be a solid yes.

Bettering these odds are the slightly impressive specs featured on the Alienware M11x which sports a Excessive Definition eleven inch display and a GT335M GPU from NVIDIA. It’s capable of enjoying such well-liked games as Name of Responsibility (Fashionable Warfare 2) at 30 frames-per-second with a 1336 x 768 max resolution. Alienware is claiming even increased frames charges with benchmarks of well over 60 fps, even able to reaching 90 fps. Battery life (as claimed by Alienware) stands at 3 or 4 hours for gaming, and as much as 6 or 7 hours for common use.

The M11x also sports some other impressive specs for such a small machine: built-in Wi-Fi and webcam, a number of USB ports, HDMI-output, SD card reader and a constructed-in SIM card reader which will enable customers to utilize their cellphone SIM card and have entry to Web services. Also, the M11x has both the NVIDIA GPU and an built-in chipset – you’ll be able to change to the much less demanding graphics when not gaming to save battery life.

In fact, the M11x has all the styling and features you would count on from an Alienware gaming laptop computer, like those seen on the powerful M17x and M15x. With jet-black seems and multi-zone LED illumination on the keyboard, alien logo, audio system and so on… the M11x will definitely stand out when evaluating netbooks. In our self-absorbed world, appears to be like do count however what’s beneath the hood will be of most interest to players who need a small portable system for their gaming.

Alienware, as of but, isn’t giving gamers the total-monty of what is on this system however full particulars will come when this gaming netbook is unleashed to the public. However dedicated avid gamers who must have their gaming accessible always, regardless of the place they are, in all probability will not be disenchanted with the Alienware M11x, the world’s first gaming netbook.
