Hello All,
I’m in need of a more grunty laptop as my netbook is unable to cope with all the apps i need to run on it now and i wouldnt mind something that could run some modern PC games (like Skyrim)
Looking at DELL OUTLET and at the wee Alienware 11inch – portable , but can connect that up to my existing HD screen.
would the specs of “
Alienware M11x R3
Processor: Intel Core i3-2357M (1.3GHz, 3MB Cache)
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium
2 GB Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz (2 DIMMs)
250 GB SATA II Hard Drive (7200 RPM)
11.6in Widescreen High Definition (1366X768) Truelife WLED
English Genuine Windows 7 SP1 Home Premium (64Bit OS)
Back Up Media Not Included
Wireless: Dell 375 Bluetooth Card
Wireless: Intel Wireless-N 1000 Card
LCD Back Cover : Stealth Black (WLAN)”
be up to scratch – or should i pay a bit more for
“Processor: Intel Core i7-2617M 1.5GHz (2.6GHz w/Turbo Boost, 4MB Cache)”
i’m assuming that its not exactly TWICE the speed of the previous?
not sure what GFX card it would have, dell outlet dont list it, and all i can find is this :
“the latest M11x has received a hardware boost, featuring a Intel 2nd generation Sandy Bridge processor as well as the Nvidia GeForce GT 540M graphics card. “
so it could be a previous generation?
any help much appreciated….
