Alienware M15x Noob Review

i think that i no need to introduce about how many USB there and BLA BLA BLA.......

1st of all, we talk about the size of laptop, Alienware M15x is the heaviest and thickest laptop after i did a comparation (Asus G51VX-A1 VS Alienware M15x)






I put the Asus G51VX-A1 and Alienware M15x side-by-side, the length of Alienware is 2.5cm-3cm longer than Asus G51VX-A1, the height of the Alienware M15x is 3.5cm-4cm, while Asus G51VX-A1 is 2.5cm-3cm, Alienware M15x is slightly 1cm thicker than the Asus G51VX-A1...


2nd, now we come to the cooling system, all of us knew that Alienware M15x is the evolution of Area15-m15x that have bad cooling system(im not sure, i just saw some review show that, correct me if im wrong), As u can see that the bottom of the Alienware M15x is nice build for cooling, 1 fan for graphic card, 1 fan for CPU. In my test the temperature is keep below 70'c even my test in on my bed....., in the opposite Asus G51VX-A1 had a bad build of cooling system, 1 fan share by a fan and the heat sink is small with 1 tube for each CPU and GPU, Asus G51-VX-A1 even on a cooler in Air-Con room, temperature is suck 90'c to 100'c.....






I use furmark which is a GPU fully stress tools.....


3rd, we look at the design and the keyboard layout..... i will give 1 point to Asus G51VX-A1, because it have a better design in the front cover, with "Blue Alien" as title, with blue light and the "Republic Of Gamer" logo, for Alienware M15x front cover look normal(only 1 Alienware logo outside) but it looki solid build.... Interior 1 give 1 mark for the Alienware M15x, the keyboard layout is vry nice with colourful lighting(AlineFX which u can customize ur light), the speaker light, touch pad, Alienware logo, and the "ALIENWARE" also can change colour.....








4th we look through the LCD/Monitor, the Alienware M15x have a edge to edge FullHD LCD provide a good contrast and view angle, but if u decrease the contrast of the LCD u will look urself on the LCD, the LCD will replect everything clearly.....



I had gone through the 3DMark06, Vantage, Wprime, CinebenchMark






If u need any more game review or anything, pls tell me, i will try my best to done it.....

 

not bad, i always wanted to see how the size compared with the Asus and M15x. I like how the AW has a much neater and cleaner looking design than the G51. I do realize though that English is probably not your first language, which makes the review a bit difficult to read.

But the pictures helped!

 

great review there man

Setting "Gamer" 1920x1080


Setting "Gamer" 1600x900


Setting "Gamer" 1366x768


Setting "custom"(Particle, Shadow, Water quality mainstream) 1920x1080


Setting 'Enthusiat" 1920x1080


Setting "Enthusiat" 1366x768

After running the benchmark, Setting "gamer" with 1366x768 will run smoothly..... 1600x900 is still playable with avarage 27fps++ Max 37fps....... At native resolution(1920x1080) will run laggy with avarage 21++fps max 29++fps
Alienware M15x is totally cannot run at Enthusiat setting.....
