Of course the Alienware M18x "monster" do not fit current trends, and most buyers are still rare look at the range of 17 inches. However, after seeing the testing of this laptop, we must conclude that the M18x has a lot of potential.

Of course, this laptop is big and heavy (more than 5 kg!). However, the performance delivered by this notebook has no equal in the laptop world. Regardless, of what the task, the M18x can do it. Thanks to Intel's Sandy Bridge processors and AMD CrossFire systems (two Radeon HD 6970Ms), passionate gamers can play the game with maximum details.

M18x offers more than good performance. Screen and sound system are both very good, and extensive connectivity offered in the case of high quality to ensure that the M18x could serve well as a replacement for everyday desktop PC. Another positive feature is the large battery, which is achieved thanks to the graphics switching technology.

M18x has very few weaknesses. In addition, heavy loads and large size, noise emissions could be a problem for noise-sensitive buyers. If not, this luxurious desktop replacement laptop has been very well designed by Alienware. M18x notebook sets the standard for others.
