Hardware Heaven
Alienware M17x R3 with GTX580M 9/10 Performance Award July 2011
The M17x R3 is a very impressive system which excels on build quality and design. The addition of NVIDIA's GTX 580M to the configuration options makes it a phenomenal mobile gaming system too, allowing us to game at 1920x1080 with maximum image quality settings in the latest titles.

Kit Guru
Alienware M17x R3 Laptop Review (Core i7 2630QM / 256GB SSD)
If you want the ultimate performance desktop replacement, then this might just hit the spot. Just be aware of the weight and the short battery life; this is a desktop replacement, not a ‘portable, everyday’ machine. Carrying it to LAN parties, then back home should be the extent of its travels.

God is a geek
Alienware M17xR3 Review
The Alienware M17xR3 is an outrageous device — as powerful as you could ever wish for, with a superb battery life and great looks. The mouse and keyboard are as comfortable as you’ll find on a laptop, and whilst the unit is quite heavy, it’s not unbearably so. Of course, this kind of wonderment comes at a price. But, if you can afford it and if you are serious about 3D gaming on a PC, then you’d be a crazy mad fool not to buy one as soon as you possibly can. If you do, you will have a new love in your life called the Alienware M17xR3.

Alienware M17x R3 Gaming Laptop Review
As expected, the M17x R3 is packed with lighting and when turned on in low-light conditions, looks fantastic. Noise levels are also impressive and even when running both the CPU and GPU at 100 percent load, the system remains very quiet. Two of the highest quality items are the screen and the speakers.
