    Hello guys .. hows everyone doing?

    well i've been thinking for ages about getting an alienware. First, i decided to go with the m15x then when i saw the m17x r3
    i was excited about getting one
    but i have been wondering about some questions :confused:
    Ok first hows the sound in the m17x in general? do they use a certain sound chip? and if so what kind?
    Second, hows the m17x with everyday's use for 3 to 4 hours regularly? does it affect the laptop or its performance?
    I'll be grateful for your help :)

    You realize that no one has one yet as they have yet to ship even the first ordered model, right..

    unfortunately since every model is basically a brand new entity I don't think you can make that kind of generalization , but again since none of us know yet, who knows :)
