Alienware has been known for offering high end gaming PCs with awesome looks and performance. At CES 2010 the company unveiled its latest incursion into the portable gaming market, the M11x.
Small and lightweight notebooks have been increasing in popularity lately due to portability and low price. These notebooks often sacrifice power for size but that’s not the case with the M11x. It comes with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and an Nvidia GeForce GT 335M GPU. These would take a toll on a notebooks battery life but the M11x also comes equipped with Intel’s integrated graphics so that users can change on the fly for less graphics intensive applications. Battery life is said to be around 3 hours when gaming and it goes up to 6 hours for regular use.
The M11x is only 11-inches and it comes with a 720p HD display with a resolution of 1336 x 768. It is only 4 pounds and also has the trademark Alienware looks, with an awesome backlit keyboard.
It also has another interesting feature that provides wireless Internet access anywhere you go. By using a cellphone’s SIM card, it can use the carrier’s data plan for the connection.
This looks like an awesome gadget. I’ve always liked the new and increasingly powerful notebooks due to their size and portability. You get all your PC needs in a small package and it’s something that you can carry practically in you hand. The M11x really impressed me with its stats and according to representatives from Dell it can run Crysis and Modern Warfare 2 with all settings on high. I’m definitely giving it a look once it comes out February 2010.
There’s not a definite price yet but it will sell for less than US $1000. This can be a little expensive for a notebook, but the M11x is a full fledged gaming PC in a notebook sized package.
