The Dell Alienware M11x-R3 Review. Gaming notebook is identical to the large dimensions. However, the M11x with a mini form capable of being a “powerful weapon” in gameplay.
Alienware is a phenomenal brand. The vendor is widely recognized as the brand for high-end notebook gaming notebook offers, a series of mini M11x has trod the third generation.
In the third generation, the M11x has experienced improvements in the performance balanced with the resistance of the batteries. This is thanks to the use of an Intel Core i7 and the second generation of Ultra Mobile Optimus technology from Nvidia graphics card.
Notebook for gaming is identical with the large screen size. A wide range of notebooks on the market also comes with a screen size of 15 to 17 inches. However, the actual notebook for gaming was not necessarily large. With the dimensions of the mini too, Alienware M11x can deliver the sensation of playing games comfortably.
Alienware notebook does have an unusual design. With its unique, whole body covered with a layer of soft rubber, notebook even get to the bottom of the notebook. While the interior uses a hard plastic material, so impressed sturdy. At the bottom of the notebook, there are metal plates that can be engraved with the owner’s name (or name of the game clan) that highlight the exclusivity aura.
On the inside, the keyboard looks very solid. Keys of a keyboard like jostling with each other. However, cool, backlit lights on the keyboard can be customized via AlienFX software. This application can also set the display lights on the front grill, Alienware logo, power button, and indicator panel. There are 20 colors and 3 different effects that can be customized according to taste.
Present without an optical drive, the M11x has fairly complete connectivity. SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports are available as much as 3 pieces, HDMI port, FireWire, and DisplayPort. It is unfortunate indeed, with a thick body, M11x should have the optical drive slot on the right side (which still leaves a blank space). This considering the game installation currently still requires DVD.
M11x third generation has increased from the previous generation. With a more hurried and power-saving processor, M11x R3 fighting machine that can be taken anywhere.
