Alienware M14X Laptop

Alienware M14X Laptop Computer is designed for gamers looking for the performance of a 15+ inch notebook but with more demanding needs in mobility such as lower weight, exceptional battery life, high-speed mobile broadband options, and a smaller physical size. In addition the Alienware M14X offers an experience with external devices that can deliver HD video and 5.1 digital surround audio that can transform your entertainment center.
With a 2.3-GHz Intel Core i7-2820QM quad-core processor, 8GB of RAM, and an Nvidia Geforce GT 555M processor (with 1.5GB of VRAM), the M14x has a lot under the hood. That score is about 4,000 points higher than the average mainstream system, and it even beats larger dedicated gaming rigs such as the MSI GT680R (9,184). It also bested the Dell XPS 17, which has the same internal compenents, by about 1,000 points.
The 750GB, 7,200-rpm hard drive duplicated a 4.97GB folder of multimedia in 2 minutes and 6 seconds, a rate of 40.4 MBps. That's about 14 MBps faster than the category average.
