Hi
I am considering in buying a M17X R2![]()
How noisy is a M17x R2 i7 920xm if not gaming ?
Let say just doing intense internet browsing !!!!!!
All your comments are must welcome
-
If your just browsing it will be quiet for the most part.. Just small amount of fan noise.
-

If that is the case it be ok ! I don like intense fan noise while doing web browsing or typing letters.
Then if I ever play i don't mind noise, can always wear headphones, but i would not like wearing headphone to write a letter lol -
multimedia sites could always trigger the fans.
-
Java/Flash ^

Very quiet i hardly ever hear the fan .
-
Mines quiet when running it in balanced power mode. Even flash heavy sites like Hulu don't really get the fans going much.

A second question when i went to Alienware show room I had the chance to play with an M17X R1 and i try it with one game , then while the game was running i did ALT - TAB to switch to desktop screen, to my surprise when i try ALT-TAB to come back to the game i ended UP with a black game screen
Reboot try again and it happened again is that normal with all Alienware machines ? The R1 had the Q9000 and a pair of 260ts
I was surprise since even on my oldest laptop 3 year old life book I can do that with no incidence -
Same here, the fans are at their lowest RPM during browsing and watching videos. Only games or stress tests make them loud.

and even if he could speak english he did not seem to understand nothing about Alienware lol
I am sure it has to be some driver issue, or the fact that was ruining with the 940 card since i did not hear the fans at all while gaming 3 minutes lol
