Alienware M18x Landing Imminent

When anyone thinks of high-end, gaming laptops, Alienware is the first name that usually comes to people's head. With the companies long standing history, and its reputation for building the most advanced computers on the consumer-end of the market, the release of information on a new line of laptops has created quite a stir.


However, the reason that this is so important, is just the insanity of this laptop in particular. While alienware, as stated prior, is known for making the best of the best, I feel that with this, they are taking it to a new level. Here's some of the specs on it: (high-end)

• Intel i7 processor, 3.6ghz factory, probably the 6-core model that you can get factory overclocked to ~4.1ghz
• NVidea or ATI dual graphics cards, 3GB cards each, using the SLI and CrossFireX connection configuration
• Dual or Tri 2TB hard drives that run on 7.2k or 10k rpm that can be set in raid 0 or raid 1,probably factory set for a 2TB main and 250gb second in raid 0 for that fastest, or if available, a 125gb SSD, but so far, they haven't released the exact model of what will be available for the hard drives
• Independent Soundcard, probably similar to the ones that they have in the rest of their laptops, not exactly the greatest out there, but these aren't for studio musicians, they're for gamers
• Here's the nice part though, on the base its got 6GB of DDR3, Tri channel RAM at 1666Mhz, but, that can be raised up to 32GB, which not only a insane for a high end desktop, but this is in a laptop, which makes it even more impressive
• Also, this laptop has the largest of any alienware laptops, coming in at a whopping 18.3" diagonal, and comes in at an outstanding 23+ lbs. truly exemplifying the gravity of the situation.
