    So that means, Nvidia is Bringing Max Q to Alienware Laptops as well, since Alienware was there on partners list, New Models ??

    I suspect they will. What I am more curious about is the pricing, will Max Q be priced higher than the regular versions. The current ALienwares have no problem with cooling the hardware though.

    Alienware was respectable until dell took over. Overpriced bga slop. Msi is the way to go for that. Even asus, I personally own an am3+ mobo, a tablet and a gaming mouse from them, but when i found out that they were actually selling 'gaming laptops' with ram soldered to the mainboard, that officially removed them from my list of places to get a laptop from 'until further notice'.

    Ouch, in the grammatical kisser yes, they are bga bottom feeders (i can say that now!!) But i WAS trying to keep it in the context of the thread. And in that context, i would actually recommend msi. They aint too bad for what ive seen. Asus lost my respect after finding out about that ram. And even though i DID clarify (had to check my own post) keep up the good work bga bashing, now that im one of the 'cool kids' you just gained an ally in that crusade.
