The Alienware M15x Gaming Laptop

Alienware offers one of the best gaming laptops out there, but 'one of the best' doesn't seem to be good enough anymore. It's now testing out the possibility of a lighter and more portable laptop, which might be considered to be setting a foot in the netbook bandwagon. The result is the M15X, which harbors a 15-inch screen with a lighter magnesium casing.

Pros:

  • Extremely customizable
  • Weighing in at 9.2 lbs, it's lighter than the M17X
  • 9-cell battery option
  • Starting price of $1499
  • Lower heat and noise emissions than predecessors
  • Intel Core i7 processor

Cons:

  • Only contains one video card, so it cannot deal with SLI graphics
  • Smaller 15 inch display may cause some gaming inconveniences
  • Keyboard doesn't contain a number pad
  • Not as powerful as the M17X
  • Offers less options than previous laptops
