Alienware Aurora m9700 Review!

Posted

Pros: Awesome Graphical Power, Does what its made to do (play games), no real competition (excluding the soon to be released m9750)

Cons: High Price, Lack of 64 bit drivers on alienware site,have to pay for additional colours.

  Fantastic had this machine 6 months and can honestly say have had no bother with it. Plays games better than most desktops and keeps up with the rest which is outstanding for a laptop. Heat issues not a problem so long as you leave amble room (4inches) behind the machine. UK tech support very good.... Just can't believe how well this machine has performed, going to buy my new desktop off them.     http://www.amazon.com/Alienware-Aurora-M9700-Notebook/dp/B0066BN2A2

My Alienware Review By Leyla. March 11, 2007 - March 22, 2007. The Beginning. I didn't know what made me buy an Alienware laptop, but it all started with me being at the Gamestop.com site until the AW ad caught my eye. I simply clicked on it and I was taken to the AW site, all the flash animation of the banner and the pics of their signature computers lured me into buying it. After all, I remembered that I did in fact wanted a laptop for so long, and I believe it is time now to buy one. Despite the price, I'm eager to buy it. I did remember I wanted a fast gaming computer, and this is my one and only chance to be able to buy one from a company that they so claim to say "The...

I was looking for a laptop in the $1500 to $2000 range the was great at gamming. Some of the models I looked at were the ASUS A8js and F3jm, Alienware and Dell XPS series. The Asus systems looked nice but i couldnt customize the setup and I was also a little worried about trying to get a extended warrenty. The Dell models were not too bad but on some of the systems defaulted to high end items and out of my budget. I really loved the look of the Alienware machines and I wanted the m9700 with SLI pretty bad so I kept watch on the prices. I didnt receive the money I was waiting on to buy the system till late december so I missed out on the free SLI upgrades they were offering before...

It has been a few weeks since I recieved my Saucer Silver m9700 and I'm just now realizing how amazing this computer really is. My first intention towards purchasing this computer was to play games on it and still be able to lug it around with a lot more ease than a desktop. It has in every way, shape, form, and gratification lived up to the reviews and praises from the people here on NBF. I thank you all for the ability to gladly hand over a few grand for something that seems like it should cost a whole lot more. I've got another laptop at my disposal and I do mean disposal. It takes the brunt of my online searching and stupid nonsense downloads of music and photochopping leaving...

INTRO: This is my third Alienware system - my first was the Aurora 7500 desktop that is going strong after almost two years. I then followed that with the 15.4" m5500 when they first became available...it's a great notebook, but I got hooked on the m9700 after reading all the positive comments. Here's a shot of my first two systems: At first, I was not interested in the m9700 because it didn't have the latest dual core processor. But, after careful consideration of why I wanted the system, I realized this was not really an issue. My m9700 will be used primarily for gaming, and perhaps some Photoshop work. I'm not a big multi-tasker, and I knew from my experience with...

First off This review is aimed at people who are in a situation similar to mine, and can't spend to much on an m9700. I've ordered it from Alienware Germany (all European orders are handled in Ireland, i believe) and they have been excellent in dealing with my order. The specs on my machine are not at all impressive compared to the configs i've seen around here, but still this thing is one hell of a performer. Timeline - Ordered on the 31st of August - Hit Phase 3 on the 12th of September (explaination below*) - Hit Phase 5 on the 28th September - Hit Phase 20 on the 29th of September - Delivered to my house on the 3rd of October and i was not home. - Re-delivered on the...
