by Sze | Filed under Laptop
Alienware M17 is a gaming laptop with a 17-inch display. The M17 features optional ATI CrossFireX graphic card. CNET has reviewed the laptop. The test unit is powered by an INtel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26GHz processor, 3GB of RAM, dual ATI Radeon HD 3870 video cards, and 160GB hard drive.
CNET comments:
The good: Decent mix of price and performance; optional quad-core CPUs and dual ATI GPUs.
The badThe bad: Backtracks to an older, clunkier Alienware design; can get very pricey with the right options.
The bottom lineThe bottom line: Alienware is trying to have it both ways with the new M17, combining a relatively low starting price with some very pricey upgrades, including quad-core CPUs and ATI CrossFireX video cards. Our configuration wasn’t very exciting, but turned in capable gaming scores.
Score: 3.5/5
