Alienware Aurora m7700 Review

Alienware is known for being a bit more pricey than its competitors, but that is because of both its attention to detail and its insane specifications. Laptop Magazine has put up a review of their new Aurora m7700 system with an AMD 64 FX-60 processor. This is not the most portable of machines, but its 17 inch widescreen LCD would probably be really nice to look at.

At ten pounds, the Aurora m7700, Alienware’s AMD version of the dual-core Area-51 m7700, might not save your spine while you trek to LAN parties, but the high performance will make your laptop the focal point of any gaming session, regardless of your skill. Media hounds with cash to burn will find ample options and performance as well. Make that lots of cash to burn; our test configuration will run you $4,258.

In the end they gave the Aurora m7700 a 4 out of 5, and an editor’s choice badge, saying that it has excellent gaming performance and an eye-catching design, but the annoyingly bright LED’s and the weight were some of the listed negatives. Don’t expect to be able to use this machine on the road though, with its battery dying after around an hour of gaming or an hour and a half of regular use.
