Alienware M17x R4 (Core i7, Ivy Bridge) Review

 

This week we’ve been blessed with another look at the most colorful-keyed and unique looking gaming notebook in theAlienware M17X R4, this time complete with Ivy Bridge. This beast works with a quad-core 3rd Generation Intel Core i7 processor, 28nm NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M GPU, and a lovely 17.3-inch 1920 x 1080 display up front of an extremely thick chassis. This beast is marked by its power as much as it is its ability to have its all-over lighting customized.
