Where did all the M17x owners go?

The Alienware thread of the forum should either be relabeled "my m15x sucks forum or "my m17 is the king of 3dmarks forum". What happened to all of the m17x's? I use mine all the time. If Im not on some patrol than Im using the beast. The m17x has made the second half of deployment go by alot faster, thank you AW for a great machine!!!!! Heck there are more threads about Dell's 1730 or the older 9750!!!!

 

They're all getting their listing ready on eBay to sell in time for the new release. lol.

 

Keep posts on topic

 

what do you mean? i haven't seen a 3dmark thread for the m17 in a while????????

 

That reminds me, have you seen my latest 3dmark scores??

Just kidding - actually, that's a good question. Lately, though, I think everyone's been a little preoccupied with the countdown mystery and the possibility of something new on the horizon (nbut, then again, we're computer enthusiasts - we're ALWAYS preoccupied with the possibility of something new on the horizon!)

 

no i have seen any onwers but maybe they just come on no more.

 

I'm still lurking in the background.... I've had my M17x it for almost a year now, without a one single problem.

 

well at this current stage, most AW seller recommand ppl to buy M17 isnt it ?

before i bought my M17. I told the AW seller, i cannot decide between M17x and M17. The AW seller highly recommand me to get a M17 rather than a M17x. then i asked them why ? they just told me M17 is the newest product and run more stable than M17x and last more longer than M17x. so.. i got my M17 now.

 

Well my last post had to much of an opinion in it so it got booted. Anyway do you guys realy buy and sell laptops that quickly???

 

hey when did you post this. i remember being in some m17x vs m17 thread created.

 

hmm. is it? I dont know. that is what my experience before i got my M17. maybe someone have the same experience as me

 

Im sure theres a lot of people with m17x...


Theyre prolly too busy having fun playing their games then wondering where other people are that own the notebook!

heh

 

I'm here, with my m17x, just don't post because I haven't had one problem with mine, and I see no need to go mucking around with something that is not broken.

 

They still make the 17X? lol

 

Me, personally? nope. That's why I'm somewhat annoyed at my timing - bought my M17 system about a month ago. I love it, but of course would also love to have the 'latest, greatest', and it's not going to happen...

Normally I'll buy a new one every 4 or 5 years, assuming my computer a) survives that long (and I try to take good care of them, so they generally do) and b) still runs what I ask of it (and I try to buy high end up front, so they usually do...)

So, looks like I'll check back in 5 years and see what's new then for my next purchase...

 

Jesus Jeffreyac, 5 years would kill me! although I will be the first to admit that I cant afford to be looking at this new notebook after buying my M17 just 3 months ago. Although I have nearly paid off the money I had to accrue to get it.

 

No, it is no longer on AW's website.

 

Throw it on eBay. That's what it's there for.

 

Holy cow they really did drop it.

 

we can have a crysis benchmarking thread and see m17x owns m17

-m17x user

 

...m17x is off the site. WTB a m17x that is suped up. Why did they do this, they kept the 9750 around forever. SO uncool alienware.

 

I think by the 1st, a lot of us are going to be saying "SO cool Alienware"

 

14 days 15 hours would put the release at 10 AM EST on June 2.

 

June 2 ?! Same day as My last exam. cannot wait to see it

 

crysis doesn't support crossfire. and i know i'm quad core right now but

 

stop posting about the m17x issue they took it off due to the new one being m17x the second ......

it is a m17x refresh thats why it is gone

 

How about "Dellienware M17x part duex"...with DELL tattooed across the forehead of the Alien head.

 

I was waiting on a last price drop on the m17x, couse I was still poor when it came out. I bought an M17 last week, (cheap) tested it, and put it on ebay so I can buy the m17x. No hly sht they dropped it. So I have to look for one on ebay I think the 9800 still beats the 3870, and no need for quad core if you have the x9000. And I really don't like blue lights anywhere.

 

the 9800m gt is alittle better then our cards but not by a huge amount. plus price is also factored into it. is xxx dollars worth xxx performance increase.


m17x or m1730 owners put up some benchmarks.

 

Yeah, the 9800m gt is like the old Chevy 454. May not be new tech but it sure can go!

 

Here are mines stock!

Dell XPS M1730 with the T9300 Processor!
Dual 9800GT SLI Enabled!

 

ATI is wayyyy better at synthetic benchmarks but not gaming

 

mr moo how can you justify that?

3dmark06 is a dx9 benchmark and yes ati has built there cards arounnd it. but that is the only benchmark that i see ati card really excel. but most real time games i rock in. i would have to record a video and then encode it and it will be a pain our wise i would do it.

 

Yeah Don,

ATI and Nvidia cards will both rock. As far as mobile GPU's go, I prefer Nvidia because of the driver support they provide to mobile users. Also, as we've seen, the current crop of ATI mobile cards are CPU dependent so having a fast CPU with them increases framerates.

 

do you really think that? what games can you prove that this is a fact. not including 3dmark06. i made my clock at 6x and my score was 8500. i said are you kidding me and haven't chosen 6x again. lol

i am not saying it doesn't but i just need to verify what you are saying.

btw 6x is 1.6ghz.

 

Don,

I wish I could remember exactly where the posts are, but but I've seen them in this forum and the W90 forum. "I think", viciousXUSMC or Quadzilla uploaded some data about this?

We, of course, are fortunate to have very capable CPU's to add to the performance of our 3870's.

EDIT: This isn't exactly what I was looking for Don but I'll link this and look in the W90 forum info and add here:
