Alienware launched High Definition Media Server
By Daniel Lim on Friday, Feb 1st 2008 2 CommentsEazo X70 is a high end gaming PC with a sense of style
By James Allan Brady on Thursday, Jan 31st 2008 4 CommentsI am not going to bag on Alienware too much, but I have seen some of their desktop computers, and they aren’t too terribly attractive, in fact, the only desktop I’ve ever seen in person that looked good was the Blackbird 02, but much like both of those computers, this desktop from China has the performance, and the style. Sure it costs nearly 50 grand, but it has a side door that opens more eloquently than a Lamborghini.
nVidia GeForce 8800M GTX SLI configuration for hardcore gaming on the go
By James Allan Brady on Monday, Jan 28th 2008 No CommentsOnce again nVidia has claimed the most powerful mobile graphics solution title by combining a pair of super fast 8800M GTX GPUs. I don’t think there is a single game out now that this duo can’t display at max resolution with a more than decent frame rate.
Samsung 64GB SSD performance benchmarks
By Ewdison Then on Tuesday, Nov 27th 2007 5 CommentsEarlier this month Samsung sent over their new 64GB solid-state drive for us to play with, and Vincent promptly slapped it into his MacBook Pro to see whether it made much of a difference in access speed. Well, we’ve finally dragged it away from him, extracted the SSD and put it through some benchmark testing.
As a test machine we used Alienware’s m9750 laptop running Windows Vista 32-bit (as we reviewed here), comparing the Samsung 64GB SSD with Sandisk’s 32GB SSD in both single and dual-drive RAID-0 configurations. After each hardware change we reinstalled the laptop’s OS using Alienware’s supplied restore disk, then ran HD-Tach and HD-Tune to test burst and transfer rates.
nVidia drops 8800M in GTS and GTX versions
By James Allan Brady on Tuesday, Nov 20th 2007 No CommentsThat means you can start expecting to see the new mobile graphics chips in your favorite high end laptop manufacturers product lines. They both work with DX9 and DX10 and include PowerMizer tech to keep power usage down when you aren’t gaming or watching HD content.
I had the pleasure of toying around with the Alienware laptop we got in the other day, and I must admit, I am impressed with how far mobile graphics has come. I mean, my last laptop had 64MB of shared graphics memory on a Radeon 9600 chipset, needless to say these chips, and those in the Alienware are a significant improvement.
Alienware Area 51 M9750 review – Media powerhouse
By Reece Bailey Schofield on Monday, Nov 19th 2007 No CommentsAn Alienware computer is a mythical beast. Ever since Alienware started making computers in 1996, gamers and power hungry PC addicts have drooled over their speed, processing power, and overall design. This is the first time I’ve ever spent more than a couple hours with an Alienware machine, so I wasn’t truly privy to the finer points of an Alienware. All I can really say is that I’ve never been so impressed with the performance of a notebook computer.
Alienware M9750 Unboxing Sporting Samsung 64GB SSD
By Reece Bailey Schofield on Friday, Nov 16th 2007 No CommentsToday we unboxed an Alienware M9750 laptop with dual 32GB SSD from Sandisk. The laptop was provided to us by Alienware, via Samsung Semiconductor Group. This will give us a chance to bench mark the Samsung versus Sandisk solid state drive.
Make sure to check out our 64GB Samsung drive that we revealed earlier this month.
Alienware Wireless speaker get a clay mold
By James Allan Brady on Monday, Oct 15th 2007 No CommentsIt’s not even a real clay mold; it’s a digital representation of a clay mold. All I have to say is by release, they better look a lot better, color schemes and a nice mesh or honeycomb grill could really be all it takes to fix their looks, the shape is fine for the most part.
Some features would be good too, so far all we have is that they will be wireless and that they could look something close to this. Personally, I am hoping for Bluetooth, go all the way Alienware, make a Bluetooth profile that allows two audio outputs to be paired together to work with a single audio source, I know you can do it.
New Alienware laptop boasts 640GB of storage space
By Chris Scott Barr on Friday, Sep 21st 2007 No CommentsHow much hard drive space does your laptop have? I’m going to guess that it doesn’t have more than your desktop. However, if you maxed-out one of Alienware’s new laptops, that might not be the case.
