Thread Starter 

Should I get a Alienware M14x
PROCESSOR Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM 2.0GHz (2.9GHz w/Turbo Boost, 6MB Cache)
OPERATING SYSTEM Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit, English
WIRELESS CARDS Intel® Wireless-N WiFi Link 1000 a/g/n 1x2
MEMORY 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1600MHz
VIDEO CARD 1.5GB DDR3 NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 555M using NVIDIA Optimus™ technology
HARD DRIVE 500GB 7200RPM SATA 3Gb/s

Or the Alienware M17x
PROCESSOR Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM 2.0GHz (2.8GHz Turbo Mode, 6MB Cache)
OPERATING SYSTEM Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit
MEMORY 4GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz (2DIMMS)
VIDEO CARD 1GB GDDR5 AMD Radeon™ HD 6870M
HARD DRIVE 320GB 7,200RPM HDD
LCD PANEL 17.3-inch WideFHD 1920 x 1080 60Hz WLED

Which one of these would run games faster? I want to run games like Crysis 2 and Skyrim at high settings.

This.

I am reviewing the M14x now and it should be up next week. This is not to say the M14x doesn't perform well, it just means the m17x CPU is THAT much better.
