Author Topic: Should I get the M11x Alienware Laptop?  (Read 3080 times)


Like I said in another thread about someone wanting an alienware, you're wiping your ass with $1000 if you get one. They're not built to last long and are insanely overpriced.

You will probably get more use out of a gaming desktop, but if you really want a laptop, I hear that the general consensus points to Asus.

No.

Oh look, here's the thread. And you were the OP:

Ahh, irony.


I'm looking for small gaming computers.  I believe this Alienware is a good choice, for size and reliability (I'm also hung on the marketing scheme they put on the website)

What would use suggest that is a cheaper, similar, alternative?

What games do you wanna play?

I was looking at the one you presented before you ninja'd your post :P

To answer your question, I'm looking for a computer that will allow me to play, lets say for example, the Battlefield series or simply Counter Strike.

At first it looked like a small laptop but then it mindforgeted me.

I don't really know of any small laptops that fit the description. You could try an Asus N10 or something.

I'll look at Asus for a bit more, but I'm still convinced with the Alienware.  To have it custom built and personalized is all pretty nice, the price isn't as good as the others, but this is the only luxury I'm saving up for.

But you know, I made a topic about it because I wasn't certain about buying it, so I'll still be looking at others opinions.

Please don't buy a Dell. I don't want Off Topic littered with more topics about how someone just bought a $1500 paperweight.

You don't have to say 'get out', that was uncalled for :s

Second one Ethan posted looks promising. If you want something a little smaller, I did find this one which is also a little cheaper:

Same GPU and processor, only downsides are that it only has 8 gigs of ram (down from 12), and a 500gb hard drive (down from 750). Seems more than sufficient enough, though.

I'm sorry, I didn't notice that you ran the place and could make me leave. Please don't ban me.

That's a great buy.

If he really wants to go all out and max out his budget on a smaller laptop:

I'll be convinced soon enough, I just need to sleep c:

I have one, but be warned that the stock HD is pretty stuffty, mine burned out and I had to replace it.

Why are you all hatin on Dell?
I got a plush companion cube from them. C:

I plan on getting an M11X as well, so I might as well see the selection on this topic for something better, that isn't 800$.
