Alienware m9750 Notebook Tested - SLI, RAID and Gaming on the Go! - [hardware] 06:56 PM EST - Feb,19 2008 - post a comment

Perspective take a further look at the Alienware m9750 notebook - a 17inch
screen beast that features a dual-core Core 2 Duo processor, SLI graphics and
RAID 0 SATA hard drives are the stand outs. The screen itself is vibrant and
with a resolution of 1920x1200 you'll have more than enough desktop space to get
your work done when you have to, and game when you want to.
From a features stand point, the m9750 brings more to the table than most other notebook of this size, or any. Built on the Windows XP Media Center Edition operating system, it doubles as both a great gaming notebook as well as an overall good selection for media features like DVR, movie watching and presentations. This machine has more audio and video inputs than nearly all the desktop PCs in my lab, including things like S-Video, stereo audio and even coaxial inputs, as well as VGA, DVI and 6-channel analog or digital outputs, really make it a multimedia powerhouse - if that's what you are going for. From a pure hardware perspective, the machine has support (though you can build it on their site without it) for SLI graphics, RAID SATA hard drives, and Intel's latest dual-core processors. The screen itself is vibrant and with a resolution of 1920x1200 you'll have more than enough desktop space to get your work done when you have to, and game when you want to.
As you might guess based on the specs of our test sample, the m9750 is about as fast as you can get a notebook machine configured today. Fast dual-core processors, RAID 0 hard drives, SLI graphics - it all adds up to great system performance that is nearly on par with some our desktop setups and gaming that is nearly unmatched in the mobile sector. Our benchmarks in PCMark05 as well as the few games we threw at it proved the m9750 can stand up to most users' demands, no matter what they are. The large 300GB of storage might seem a little smaller right now since larger mobile drives have been released since we received our sample, but have no doubts you can configure them in now. If you are a gamer heading out school or looking for a gaming-ready desktop-replacement machine, this could be a great choice.
